Enhanced photovoltaic performance of dye sensitized solar cell based on nanocomposites of zinc oxide photoanode

XRD and SEM images of ZnO nanoparticles prepared by the precipitation method allow investigation of their morphology and morphological refinement. No contamination was observed in the XRD spectrum and SEM confirmed that the nanoparticles were wellcoordinated ZnO at 30 nm size. UV-Vis spectroscopy was used to tune the optical properties and they appeared not to be fixed at 3.34 eV. The band gap of semiconductor materials makes them competitive for solar cell applications. The O-rich stoichiometry measured by XPS may be a direct result of zinc deficiency. Therefore, ZnO nanoparticles were prepared to fabricate secretory solar cells (DSSCs). From the perspective of J-V, open circuit voltage (Voc), barrier thickness (Jsc), fill factor (FF) and efficiency (η) were not chosen as much as possible and the quality was calculated as 0.65V, 6.26mA. , 62.2% and 1.96% respectively at 100mW/cm2 .
