摘要

A pn-tandem dye-sensitized solar cell (pn-DSC) was prepared with three different sensitized dyes CBZ Dimer (CBZD), C343, and SQ in two different compartments of the n-type or p-type cells. The constructed tandem solar cell was exhibited considerable improvement in experimental pn-DSCs parameters, open-circuit voltage, short-circuit current, fill factor, etc. These results were achieved under air mass 1.5 illumination with three different sensitized dyes in the upper and lower compartment of the pn-DSCs. These results demonstrate a complementary absorption among the two photoelectrodes in the pn-DSCs is a good approach to the efficient and low cost pn-DSCs.
