Abstract

<p>Photovoltaic performance of dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) based on a nanocrystalline TiO2 electrode have been measured in terms of I-V characteristics under standard AM 1.5 G irradiation and spectral response (incident photon to current conversion efficiency, IPCE) of the cells. The performance of DSSCs depended remarkably on the measurement conditions. It has been observed that the conventional characterization conditions for photovoltaic performance of crystalline and amorphus silicon solar cells are not suitable for characterization of DSSCs. In this paper, we suggest suitable characterization conditions, which are to be standard measurement conditions in the near future, for the photovoltaic performance of DSSCs.</p>
