Abstract

The present status of the development of dye-sensitized solar cell (DSC) was introduced. At first, the structure, working mechanism and characteristics of DSC were explained briefly. The highest efficiency reported for a labo-scale DSC with 5 mm square was 12%, while that for a DSC sub-module with 10 cm square was 10%. In view of practical use, out-door tests of DSC modules ware conducted by manufacturers of DSC as well as long-term stability tests, such as a heat-cycle test, a heat test at 85°C and a continuous irradiation test under AM1.5, 100 mW/cm2. The result of those tests showed a promising future of DSC. Finally, future research subjects for the improvement of the efficiency up to 15%, which is the final target in terms of efficiency of DSC, were discussed.
