Dye Solar Sensitised Cells

• Efficiency maintained in diffuse,

artificial and low light conditions

• Wide acceptance angle

• No toxic or rare materials

• Can be made flexible and colourful

Light absorbed by dye > electron

injected from excited dye into

layer of titanium dioxide (TiO2)

redox couple effect generates

electricity

Novelty: Solid state electrolyte

Key specification parameters

for DSSC subsystem

– Performance tests must show energy harvesting maximized over

daily / seasonal cycles under all lighting conditions

Strong light, weak light, direct light, indirect light, diffuse light,

dim light

– Resistance to temperature cycling

– Resistant to UV radiation

– Weight limit

– Dimension limit
