This book was released on 2011 with total page 75 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Comparing to the narrow band gap material, dye sensitized solar cells (DSSC) provide a less expensive manufacturing method. TiO2 nano-crystalline anode material highly improves the DSSC efficiency as Gratzel reported in 1991. Today the DSSC efficiency is about 12% based on TiO2 and ruthenium compound sensitizer. The development of a thick film screen printable paste for the DSSC TiO2 anode is the objective of this study, since thick film printing technique is appropriate for lowering the manufacturing cost of DSSC via mass production. An ideal TiO2 electrode has to achieve moderate thickness, good light transmittance, high degree of roughness and good electrical connection between the dyes and the TiO2 layer. Thick film printing pastes for the TiO2 layer are prepared tested and evaluated in this study, and their properties are experimentally examined. Experimental methods and experimental protocols for the characterization of the TiO2 thick film printable paste are established which can be useful in the advancement of the manufacturing of DSSC.
