摘要/Abstract

摘要： 柔性染料敏化太阳能电池(Flexible Dye-Sensitized Solar Cell, FDSSC)是以聚合物或金属等柔性材料为基底的染料敏化太阳能电池(Dye-Sensitized Solar Cell, DSSC)。相比于刚性DSSC, 其具有可弯曲、低成本、易大面积加工和应用范围广等优点, 越来越受到人们的关注。柔性染料敏化太阳能电池TiO₂光阳极的制备方法, 根据热处理温度的不同可以分为低温和高温制备方法,其中包括化学法、压力法、电泳沉积法、转移法、金属基底上的制备以及一些新的制备方法等。本文结合DSSC光阳极中电子的传输和复合的基本原理, 针对电极的各制备方法进行了综述, 并对电池的相关性能作了一定的介绍; 最后,对FDSSC未来的发展前景和有潜力的研究方向进行了展望。

Abstract:

Flexible dye-sensitized solar cell (FDSSC) is a type of dye-sensitized solar cell (DSSC) based on flexible substrates, such as plastics and metals, etc. The advantages of FDSSC over rigid DSSC involve bendability, lower cost, ease of large-scale production and wider application, which make it attract much attention. The fabrication methods for FDSSC photoanodes are generally categorized to low-temperature fabrications and high-temperature fabrications, including chemical additive method, mechanical compression, electrophoretic deposition, lift-off method, and some new technologies. This paper reviewed the above fabrication methods and the performance of the cells was discussed by taking into account the mechanisms for electron transfer and recombination. Finally, the future development of FDSSC was prospected.

Key words: DSSC, flexibility, low-temperature fabrication, high-temperature fabrication, TiO₂, review
