  • Publication number: 20110100462
    Abstract: A dye-sensitized solar cell, a photoanode thereof, and a method for manufacturing the same are disclosed. The photoanode of the dye-sensitized solar cell of the present invention is prepared by a porous semiconductor layer absorbing two kinds of organic sensitized dyes, and one organic sensitized dye is represented by the following formula (I): wherein, D1, D2, R1, R2, R3, R4, B, and n are defined the same as the specification. These two kinds of the organic sensitized dyes have comparative absorption peaks, so the photoanode of the present invention can absorb solar spectrum with larger wavelength range. Hence, the dye-sensitized solar cell using the photoanode of the present invention has excellent photoelectric conversion efficiency.
