1、Dye Sensitized Nanocrystalline Photovoltaic Cell,Group 1 Luke,Matt,and Jeff,Theory,Schematic of Graetzel Cell,The adsorbed dye molecule absorbs a photon forming an excited state.dye*The excited state of the dye can be thought of as an electron-hole pair(exciton).,The excited dye transfers an electro
2、n to the semiconducting TiO2(electron injection).This separates the electron-hole pair leaving the hole on the dye.dye*+The hole is filled by an electron from an iodide ion.2dye*+3I-2dye+I3-,Theory,Theory:Charge Separation,Charge must be rapidly separated to prevent back reaction.Dye sensitized sola
3、r cell,the excited dye transfers an electron to the TiO2 and a hole to the electrolyte.In the PN junction in Si solar cell has a built-in electric field that tears apart the electron-hole pair formed when a photon is absorbed in the junction.,Objective,Learn about the photovoltaic effect.Understand
4、the Scherrer formula.,Procedure:TiO2 Suspension,Begin with 6g colloidal Degussa P25 TiO2Incrementaly add 1mL nitric or acetic acid solution(pH 3-4)nine times,while grinding in mortar and pestleAdd the 1mL addition of dilute acid solution only after previous mixing creates a uniform,lump-free pastePr
