DYE-SENSITIZED SOLAR CELL USING CARBON BLACK AS A COUNTER ELECTRODE AND METHOD OF FABRICATING THE SAME

摘要

The present invention relates to a dye-sensitized solar cell which is capable of replacing an existing platinum electrode using a carbon black carbon electrode as a counter electrode and a manufacturing method thereof. In an embodiment of the present invention, a dye-sensitized solar cell includes: an optical electrode in which an oxide semiconductor electrode where dye is absorbed to a conductive substrate is formed; a counter electrode which is arranged to face the optical electrode and in which a carbon black carbon electrode is formed by coating a carbon black solution to the conductive substrate; and an electrolyte which is filled in between the optical electrode and the counter electrode.
