Large photocurrent generation in dye-sensitized ZnO solar cells

Abstract

ZnO photoanodes were fabricated using nanocrystalline pastes and their N719-sensitization led to a high short-circuit photocurrent density of 18.11 mA cm−2 and a solar energy conversion efficiency of 6.58% (AM 1.5, 100 mW cm−2).
