On the working electrode, the sintering temperature of the working electrode based on the titanium foil (Ti foil) is the main topic to be studied. The extent of necking among TiO2 particles will be examined at various sintering temperatures. The poor necking extent would be found if the sintering temperature is too low, which will cause the poor electron transport and lower cell efficiency. However, the thickness of the metal oxide would become thicker if the sintering temperature is too high, which will cause the increase in the charge transfer resistance. On the other hand, the sintering temperature has to be high enough to remove the organic binder, which is one of the components in the conventional TiO2 paste. Removing the organic binder will restrict the sintering temperature during the fabrication of the working electrode based on the Ti foil. Therefore, in this project, we will prepare a binder-free TiO2 paste and apply to the Ti foil and use lower sintering temperature to fabricate the working electrode. As for the counter electrode, we will prepare the Pt counter electrode with high transmittance to tackle the problem of back-illuminated DSSCs, which have to be illuminated from the back side. As a result, its total incident light will be less than the traditional one, which is illuminated from the front side, due to the reflection by the Pt counter electrode, and causing the lower excited electrons. After optimizing the working electrode of the DSSCs based on the Ti foil, some issues in this system would be solved. There are two major problems in this system. One is the serious formation of amorphous titanium oxide with higher sintering temperature; the other is the increasing absorbed and reflected light by the Pt counter electrode with back illumination. We will make any efforts to overcome these two problems and furthermore improve the cell efficiencies of back-illuminated DSSCs.背照式染料敏化太陽能電池無黏結劑之二氧化鈦膠體高穿透度白金對電極燒結溫度鈦板Back-illuminated dye-sensitized solar cellsBinder-free TiO2 pasteHigh transmittance platinum counter electrodeSintering temperatureTitanium foil背照式染料敏化太陽能電池:基礎與應用
