Description

A kind of ordered nano semiconductor array dye sensilized solar cell
Technical field
The present invention relates to solar photoelectric and utilize the field, be specifically related to a kind of ordered nano titanium oxide array dye sensilized solar cell.
Background technology
Dye-sensitized solar cells is by photoelectric chemical electrode (also claiming anode), electrolyte (dissolved oxygen reduction electricity to), form electrode three parts.Wherein photoelectric chemical electrode is to adopt semi-conducting material attached on the electric conductor, and the semi-conducting material majority is selected nano-titanium oxide for use, observes under the high power Electronic Speculum, and the microscopic pattern of electrode is the interconnected nano particle of cellular.The effect of photoelectric chemical electrode is the absorption of photon, the generation of light induced electron and transmission.Inside is loose structure, is used for the migration of oxidation-reduction pair, and this part is the core of dye sensitized electrode.
The semi-conducting material of the photoelectric chemical electrode of existing dye-sensitized solar cells adopts the presoma of titanium oxide usually, produces titanium oxide through decomposition step.Low boilers volatilization and presoma decompose the generation loose structure in the presoma decomposable process, adhere between the titan oxide particles and are connected.Problem is that the crystal formation of the coupling part material between (1) particle and the particle or structure and particle have difference, causes defective and dislocation, and the result influences the transmission rate of light induced electron, even improves the chance of light induced electron and hole-recombination; (2) owing to loose structure is that micromolecule volatilization or presoma decomposition condensation form, the size in hole, form are to form at random, the hole of impossible formation rule, the result reduces effective specific area, influences the diffusion of redox couple and increases the diffusion distance, also increases the diffusion distance of light induced electron.
Summary of the invention
The objective of the invention is to overcome the problem that the photoelectric chemical electrode semi-conducting material of above-mentioned existing dye-sensitized solar cells exists, a kind of orderly semi-conducting material array dye sensilized solar cell is provided, its semi-conducting material is that the filiform that is arranged in parallel vertically is attached on the electric conductor, with the orderly ions diffusion network of formation rule, make the ions diffusion distance short as far as possible.
The invention provides a kind of orderly semi-conducting material array dye sensilized solar cell, comprise the printing opacity housing, photoelectric chemical electrode is arranged in the printing opacity housing and to electrode, be filled with electrolyte in the printing opacity housing, its port is encapsulated by fluid sealant; Photoelectric chemical electrode be semi-conducting material attached to constituting on the electric conductor, described semi-conducting material is that the filiform that is arranged in parallel vertically is attached on the electric conductor.
In the technique scheme, described semi-conducting material is a nano-titanium oxide.
In the technique scheme, described electric conductor is electro-conductive glass, conductive plastics or other electric conducting material.
In the technique scheme, described electrolyte is for containing I -And I 2Electrolyte.
Light induced electron (1) in photoelectric chemical electrode requires diffusion rate fast, avoids the chance with hole-recombination; (2) hole between the particle is wanted unimpeded ions diffusion network, and the diffusion distance is short more good more.The material of structure and crystal formation homogeneous does not have defective, and electron annihilation does not take place, and electrons spread speed is consistent.Semi-conducting material is made the filiform that is arranged in parallel (or club, thread) vertically be attached to the transmission that helps electronics on the electric conductor, electronics keeps uni-directional diffusion substantially under effects such as electrode potential, electric field, and speed improves naturally.And electronics arrives external circuit with the fastest speed through conductor, and the chance compound with hole (positive charge) reduces greatly.Because the arrangement of semi-conducting material (nano-titanium oxide) is that regular distribution is on conductor, formation rule space between the material, the size an of the best is selected in diffusion according to oxidation-reduction pair (ionic forms), under this condition, ion spreads at anode with between to electrode with the shortest diffusion distance, helps improving photoelectric conversion efficiency.
Compared with prior art, the present invention has following beneficial effect:
The key technical indexes of dye-sensitized solar cells is a photoelectric conversion efficiency, leads and is closely related with light induced electron diffusion rate, electronics and hole-recombination, ions diffusion electricity.The structurally associated of electrons spread speed and material, diffusion rate improves can reduce the electronics residence time, reduces the probability of electronics and hole-recombination.The ions diffusion electricity is led by diffusion length, unimpeded proliferation network decision.
Nano-particle material forms dumb-bell shape particle connector easily after Overheating Treatment, structures such as irregular endoporus (see figure 1) are unfavorable for electronics and ions diffusion.Nano-array well overcomes these technical barriers, material internal The Nomenclature Composition and Structure of Complexes homogeneous, space outerpace distribution rational and orderly (seeing Fig. 2, Fig. 3), with the existing bigger serface of the anode of this material preparation, guaranteed that also light induced electron effectively spreads and high ion migration electricity is led, obvious improvement has compared with prior art been arranged.
