Abstract:
Among all the solar cell system dye sensitized solar cell is the third-generation solar cell that contains working electrode coating with semiconducting material, dye sensitizer, counter electrode and the efficiency of dye sensitized solar cell is reliant on the material which is absorbing light and converting it as energy. In this respect, dye sensitizer is the most substantial component in dye sensitized solar cell. Though organic and natural dye has been used in solar cell but due to the deleterious effect of organic dye, its application has been suppressed by the natural dye which is environment friendly and accessible. Ample of natural dyes has been applied in solar cell as sensitizer, while their way of application is different especially in case of dye extraction process. In this theoretical analysis, various research work related to dye sensitized solar has been included and explained the working principle of dye sensitized solar cell (DSSC), also summarized the extraction process of natural dye from different along with their photovoltaic parameters of various natural dye sensitized solar cell. Moreover, this study also compares the performance of natural dye sensitized solar cell according to presence of chromophore group in natural pigment.

Abstract:
Dye sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) have typically been produced using organic liquids such as acetonitrile as the electrolyte solvent. In real world situations water can permeate into the cell through sealing materials and is also likely to be introduced during the fabrication process. This is a problem as the introduction of water into cells optimized to use an organic solvent tends to be detrimental to cell performance. In this work DSSCs which are optimized to use water as the main electrolyte solvent are produced and characterized. Optimization of aqueous DSSCs resulted in cells with efficiencies up to 3.5% being produced. In terms of characterization, it is generally seen in this work that aqueous DSSCs produce a lower photocurrent but similar photovoltage compared to DSSCs made using acetonitrile and reasons for this are examined in detail. The decreased ability of the aqueous electrolyte to wet the nanoporous TiO2 compared to an acetonitrile electrolyte is found to be a key difficulty and several possible solutions to this problem are examined. By measuring the photocurrent output of aqueous cells as a function of xy position it can be seen that there is some dye dissolution near to the electrolyte filling holes. This is thought to be linked to pH and the effect of 4-tert-butylpyridine and may also decrease the photocurrent. It is found that there is little difference between the two types of cells in terms of the conduction band position and the reaction of electrons in the semiconductor with triiodide in the electrolyte, explaining the similarity in photovoltage. By altering the pH of the electrolyte in an aqueous cell it is found to be possible to change the TiO2 conduction band position in the DSSC. This has a significant effect on the open circuit voltage and short circuit current of the cell, though the pH range available is limited by the fact that dye desorbs at high pH values.

Abstract:
2012/2013
Dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) represent a promising alternative to silicon-based technology. From the first publications about DSSCs in the 90s, they are considered an important breakthrough for achieving high efficiency by using relatively inexpensive and abundant materials. Stability and efficiency are two crucial points in the development of this new class of hybrid photovoltaic devices. Most of the DSSC studies carried out over the past twenty years are based on the optimization of these two aspects. In particular, no particular efficiency improvement was obtained in the last period, although many efforts have been made for the research of appropriate solutions able to allow to fabricate more efficient devices. In this scenario, the topic of interest for this thesis is to further enhance the photovoltaic performance of DSSCs by integrating a nano-engineered TiOx photoanode obtained by means of a new nanostructuring method. This novel method, called ASB-SANS (Auxiliary Solvent-Based Sublimation-Aided NanoStructuring) allows the fast nanostructuring of a material in conditions of room temperature and atmospheric pressure. The nanostructuring process occurs by means of an auxiliary sublimating substance that, after having influenced the spatial arrangement of the material to be nanostructured, sublimates away from the system spontaneously. So-obtained TiOx photoanodes are characterized by an inner surface area which is higher than that of commonly used photoanodes. This implies that higher dye loading values are possible, in turn meaning an increase of photogenerated charge carriers upon sunlight absorption, hence an overall increase of the DSSC efficiency. This thesis is structured as following: - Chapter 1 is a general introduction to the photovoltaics and dye-sensitized solar cells, such as the operating principles and the characteristics of the dye cell; - Chapter 2 presents the motivation and objectives of PhD work, with particular interest in the state of art on the semiconductor layer optimization; - Chapter 3 contains a description of the two instrumental systems assembled by the author and colleagues for the characterization of photovoltaic devices (current/voltage recording system and IPCE system). A particular focus is put on the development of a tool for the determination of the photovoltaic quantum efficiency obtained by the conversion of a common UV-Vis spectrometer; - Chapter 4 is focused on the description of two methods for the determination of the active sites (dye grafting points) of the TiOx surface: the first based on the acetic acid adsorption and the second on the dye molecules adsorption. These methods are used for the characterization of all fabricated photoanodes; - Chapter 5 starts with the proven effectiveness of the ASB-SANS method applied to nanostructuring, over relatively large areas, a semiconducting polymer widely used in organic solar cells. The chapter is then focused on the description of the ASB-SANS method applied to fabricate our nano-engineered photoanodes; - Chapter 6 presents the results obtained by the application of the nano-engineered photoanodes in photovoltaic devices; - Chapter 7 reports some final conclusions together with our outlooks in the future research and development of the nano-engineered photoanodes for dye-sensitized solar cells.
Le celle solari a colorante organico (DSSC) proposte da Grätzel rappresentano una promettente alternativa alle tecnologie basate sul silicio già in commercio. Dalle prime pubblicazioni negli anni 90 esse hanno reppresentato un importante passo avanti per raggiungere un’efficienza relativamente alta utilizzando materiali poco costosi e abbondanti in natura. Gli aspetti più importanti per lo sviluppo di questa tecnologia sono la stabilità e l’efficienza, su cui si fonda la maggior parte degli studi sulle DSSC condotti negli ultimi vent’anni. In particolare, nonostante gli sforzi enormi nella ricerca di soluzioni appropriate che consentissero di fabbricare dispositivi più efficienti, nessun particolare incremento di efficienze è stato registrato. In questo scenario, il presente lavoro di tesi ha come scopo il miglioramento della performance fotovoltaica di DSSC attraverso l’integrazione al loro interno di un fotoanodo di TiOx nanostrutturato utilizzando un nuovo metodo di fabbricazione. Questo metodo, denominato ASB-SANS (Auxiliary Solvent- Based Sublimation-Aided NanoStructuring) permette la nanostrutturazione di un materiale senza dispendio di tempo ed in condizioni di temperatura ambiente e pressione atmosferica. La nanostrutturazione di un materiale avviene per mezzo di un sublimante ausiliario che, dopo aver influenzato la disposizione spaziale del materiale, si allontana dal sistema spontaneamente per semplice sublimazione. I fotoanodi di TiOx così ottenuti presentano una superficie esposta all’attacco del colorante maggiore di quella esposta generalmente dai fotoanodi comunemente impiegati. Ciò comporta un aumento della quantità di colorante che il fotoanodo può adsorbire che si traduce in un aumento della quantità di portatori di carica che si possono generare per effetto dell’assorbimento della luce solare. Il miglioramento della corrente generata nel dispositivo influenzerà positivamente l’efficienza globale della cella DSSC. Il presente lavoro di tesi è strutturato nel seguente modo: - il Capitolo 1 costituisce l’introduzione alla tematica di interesse con un approfondimento descrittivo dei componenti di una DSSC e del suo funzionamento; - il Capitolo 2 espone la motivazione e gli obbiettivi del lavoro di dottorato con particolare interesse verso lo stato dell’arte inerente alla motivazione espressa; - il Capitolo 3 contiene la descrizione accurata dei sistemi di caratterizzazione di dispositivi fotovoltaici. Di particolare rilievo è la messa a punto di uno strumento per la determinazione dell’efficienza quantica. Quest’ultimo è stato ottenuto assemblando un comune spettrometro UV-Vis con un multimetro per la registrazione delle correnti generate dalla cella; - il Capitolo 4 improntato sulla descrizione di due metodi per la determinazione dei siti attivi (punti di attacco del colorante) presenti sulla superficie del TiOx: il primo basato sull’adsorbimento dell’acido acetico e il secondo sull’adsorbimento delle molecole di colorante. Tali metodi serviranno per la caratterizzazione dei fotoanodi nanostrutturati; - il Capitolo 5 si apre con la provata efficacia del metodo di nanostrutturazione ASB-SANS applicato su polimeri di interesse fotovoltaico. Il fulcro del capitolo è tutto rivolto alla descrizione del metodo applicato al sistema di nanoparticelle di TiOx, con tute le soluzioni tecniche adottate per renderlo altrettanto efficace su questo genere di sistemi; - il Capitolo 6 riporta i risultati ottenuti per l’applicazione dei fotoanodi del capitolo 5 all’interno dei dispositivi fotovoltaici; - il capitolo 7 conclude il lavoro e riporta le eventuali prospettive per il futuro.

Abstract:
Today, due to the increasing global demands on energy, it is imperative that a renewable energy source be determined, that is cost effective and reliable. Solar cell technology has shown much promise over the years to replace the use of fossil fuels. However, with the current technology, the cost per watt is rather high due to the high cost of manufacturing silicon-based solar cells.

Abstract:
Com foco nos últimos seis anos, o sistema bicíclico dicetopirrolopirrol tem sido cada vez mais utilizado como ”bloco de construção” de materiais (polímeros e moléculas pequenas) para utilização em células solares. Isso deve-se principalmente à sua alta estabilidade ambiental (principalmente fotoestabilidade) e capacidades de transferência de carga. Apesar dos estudos serem ainda recentes, os resultados já alcançados mostraram o tremendo potencial dos dicetopirrolopirróis em células solares. O trabalho descrito nesta tese de Mestrado envolveu a síntese de vários derivados de dicetopirrolopirrol com o objetivo de introduzir unidades fotossensibilizantes ligadas covalentemente ao sistema dicetopirrolopirrol. Os novos compostos podem vir a incorporar um grupo carboxílico para suportar o corante na superfície de um óxido semicondutor das células solares sensibilizadas por corantes (DSSCs). A primeira parte do trabalho consistiu na alquilação ou arilação dos grupos NH de dicetopirrolopirróis comerciais. Posteriormente, foram estudados métodos de funcionalização dos grupos arilo nas posições 3 e 6 dos DPP por reações catalisadas por paládio ou por clorossulfonação. Todos os dicetopirrolopirróis sintetizados foram caracterizados por ressonância magnética nuclear, espetrometria de massa e espectrofotometria de UV-visível. Alguns compostos foram também caracterizados por fluorescência; Abstract: With a focus on the last six years, the bicyclic diketopyrrolopyrrole (DPP) system has been increasingly used as an active building block in materials (polymers and small molecules) used in solar cells. That is mainly due to its high environmental stability (mainly photostability) and charge transfer capabilities. Despite its infancy, the results already achieved have shown the tremendous potential of diketopyrrolopyrroles in solar cells. The work reported in this Master thesis involved the synthesis of several diketopyrrolopyrrole derivatives aiming introducing photosensitizing units covalently linked to the diketopyrrolopyrrole system. The new compounds may be functionalized with carboxylic groups to support the dye firmly at the surface of a semiconductor oxide of dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs). The first part of the work consisted in the alkylation or arylation of the NH groups of commercially available DPP. Then, new methods for the functionalization of the aryl groups at 3 and 6 positions of DPP were studied, mainly by palladium catalysed reactions or by chlorosulfonation. All diketopyrrolopyrrole derivatives synthesized were characterized by nuclear magnetic resonance, mass spectrometry and UV-vis spectrophotometry. Some compounds were also characterized by fluorescence.

Abstract:
Energy and environment have become the two predominant scientific research areas in the 21st century, and in some ways they are closely interconnected. Fossil fuels can no longer represent the predominant energy supply for human being. Their use must be reduced and alternative sustainable energy resources have to be identified and rapidly exploited. In the coming decades, the exploited energy sources will not only affect economy and politics but, in fact, health itself. The most direct and obvious effect derived from the current intensive use of fossil fuels is linked to the global warming caused by greenhouse gas emissions. The World Health Organization has recently estimated an increase of five million patients and 150,000 deaths per year resulting from the recent global temperature increase. Indirect effects are also important, such as the increase of infectious diseases transmitted by insects (especially malaria) and the deterioration of overall health due to malnutrition, as a direct consequence of drought and famine. Finally, the continuous use of fossil fuels boosts global pollution, which in turn significantly increases the mortality for respiratory and cardiovascular diseases. Global energy supply system must be urgently reassessed exploiting the use of clean energy sources. To this purpose, investments for the development of renewable energy resources are increasing worldwide, with particular attention to the most mature technologies such as hydro, wind and solar power. In particular, photovoltaics stands out as the most effective technology to be intensively exploited, especially if one considers that the total solar energy absorbed by Earth in one hour is higher than the overall yearly energy use. Many different photovoltaic devices have been developed over the last sixty years, and the large-scale production of solar panels having good efficiencies has begun in the last decade and is rapidly growing. The major goal is to find a trade-off between efficiency, stability, cost and environmental impact of the solar cells. This has led to a lively scientific research in this direction, in a multidisciplinary environment that includes materials scientists, electronic engineers, technologists and experts of life cycle assessment. The dye-sensitized solar cell (DSSC) is a photoelectrochemical device proposed in 1991, composed of widely available and cheap materials. Due to its ease of manufacture, versatility in the choice of components, good efficiency even in the presence of low irradiation level and adaptability to flexible substrates, DSSC has received considerable attention from the scientific community. However, despite the record efficiency of 13% and the recent large-scale industrial production, DSSCs still suffer from poor long-term stability, mainly due to the presence of the volatile liquid electrolyte as well as photosensitive organic components. In such a scenario, the scope of this PhD Thesis is the development of innovative quasi-solid electrolytes and external coatings where specifically designed polymeric networks are able to impart both high stability and efficiency to the resulting DSSCs. In Chapter 1 the current global energy scenario is thoroughly presented, along with an overview of the technologies developed for the conversion of solar energy into electricity. The physical parameters useful for the evaluation of the photovoltaic device performance are detailed and the state of art efficiencies so far achieved by means of the current technologies are reviewed. Chapter 2 deals with the basic concepts for DSSCs; cell architectures, components and operating principle are detailed. The specific characterization methodologies developed for the study of DSSCs are also described. Chapter 3 is focused on DSSC stability, which represents a key issue of the current solar energy research. The two main strategies to achieve stable DSSCs (i.e., the replacement of liquid electrolytes with polymeric ones and the introduction of external multifunctional polymeric coatings) are reviewed. As regards the preparation of these materials, photopolymerization is presented as one of the most promising technique due to its unique features such as rapidity and environmental friendliness, which are highly desired in a low impact and cheap technology like DSSC. The experimental part of this Thesis deals with the research work carried out on the preparation, characterization and testing of photopolymerized electrolytes and coatings. Both of these components have been investigated by means of an approach that started with the identification of suitable UV-curable monomers, followed by the study of the relationship between materials and devices performance, and concluded with the optimization through the introduction of particular additives able to give the material a multifunctional feature. In Chapter 4 the preparation and characterization techniques used for the fabrication and analysis of cell components and devices are briefly described. The experimental work has been carried out in the Center for Space Human Robotics (Istituto Italiano di Tecnologia, Torino) and in the Department of Applied Science and Technology (Politecnico di Torino). In Chapter 5, UV-crosslinked polymer electrolyte membranes (PEMs) are proposed and demonstrated as efficient and stable DSSC electrolytes. Physico-chemical, thermal, viscoelastic and electrochemical techniques are used to investigate the correlation between chemical structure of PEMs and resulting DSSC performance, with a special focus on the transport phenomena within PEMs as well as at the interface with the cell electrodes. The experimental conditions for the preparation of the polymer electrolyte are optimized by a design of experiments approach, which is used in the DSSC research field for the first time. Light-to-electricity conversion efficiency values of the lab-scale DSSCs assembled with these polymer electrolytes are admirably almost equal to the corresponding liquid cells, moreover a remarkably better long-term stability is obtained. In Chapter 6, a step forward is proposed, where three unconventional approaches are exploited for the successful implementation of photocrosslinked PEMs, namely the fabrication of flexible devices, the preparation of PEMs having a gradient-tailored spatial composition and the in situ photopolymerization of electrolytes containing alternative redox couples. These three themes are definitely innovative in the DSSC field and represent important advances from a technological viewpoint. Since the use of functional fillers has been scarcely considered in the DSSCs literature so far, the idea of improving both cell efficiency and durability by their introduction in PEMs is proposed in Chapter 7. In this respect, metal-organic frameworks (MOF) and nanocellulose are introduced in UV-cured membranes, and their effect on photovoltaic and stability performance is investigated. In particular, a novel bio-sourced filler is demonstrated to cumulatively increase the photocurrent, the photovoltage and the long-term stability of a polymeric lab-scale DSSC. In Chapter 8, the protection of DSSCs from UV radiation and atmospheric agents by the application of photopolymerized coatings is proposed. Multifunctional coatings, able both to convert the harmful UV light into harvestable visible light by downshifting and to confer self-cleaning and water-repellent properties to the external side of the cells are investigated. For the first time, a general approach that simultaneously improves performance and weatherability of organic DSSC devices is presented, and it is noteworthy that these multipurpose coatings are obtained by means of a rapid and up-scalable photopolymerization process.

Abstract:
Dye sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) have received extensive attention among solar cells in recent years as the production cost is comparatively low and photovoltaic performance is good. Apart from TiO2, SnO2-based DSSCs are of great interest since SnO2 has a wide band gap and high mobility. Though the conversion efficiency of SnO2-based DSSCs is still not comparable to TiO2-based DSSCs, there is room for improvement to fabricate an efficient device. In this study, different commercial SnO2 nanoparticles have been compared. The number of SnO2 layers and paste formulation have been optimized. The effects of TiCl4 and TTIP treatments have been investigated. In order to further optimize the performance of SnO2-based DSSCs, different strategies have been adopted to increase dye loading, facilitate electron transport and enhance photon absorption. Different dopants (Zn, Mg and Ag) have been introduced to SnO2 pastes. It is found that cells with Zn dopants perform the best with increased dye uptake. SnO2 nanorods have been synthesized and mixed with SnO2 nanoparticles. More nanorods result in faster electron transport and hence increase the conversion efficiency. In addition, different gold nanostructures (nanostars, nanorods and nanocubic Au) have been synthesized and incorporated into SnO2 photoanodes to study the plasmonic effects. It can be observed that nanocubic Au demonstrates the largest improvement in conversion efficiency. The obtained results will be discussed in detail.

Abstract:
Dye Sensitized Solar Cells (DSSC) is a relatively new form of solar panels which use a photo reactive dye and electrolytic cell to capture sunlight and turn it into electricity. The efficiency of DSSCs is about 10% but they are much less expensive to produce than silicon solar cells. The carbon dioxide release from DSSC manufacture is much less than a silicon solar cell, so DSSCs pay back their greenhouse gas emissions rapidly, while many silicon panels may never pay back the pollution they require to manufacture. Because of greater efficiency, silicon solar cells still produce power more cheaply than DSSC. Slight improvements to efficiency or reduction in cost would make these solar panels a more cost effective solution for photovoltaic power. A standard DSSC was built and compared to a modified version using a graphite layer instead of platinum. Surprisingly, the graphite panel outperformed the platinum panel. This is thought to be a result of inexperienced manufacturing. Recommendations for improvements for the experiment are outlined.
