Abstract

We present a novel multi-timescale approach to simulating transport for electrons moving through a mesoporous film of TiO2 grains in the dye-sensitized solar cell. This method is unique in its ability to integrate microscopic (intra-grain) with mesoscopic (inter-grain) charge transport processes. Comparisons are made with experimental measurements of transient currents.
