Academic Press Dye-Sensitized Solar Cells: Emerging Trends and Advanced Applications

Dye-Sensitized Solar Cells: Emerging Trends and Advanced Applications is highly focused on addressing all aspects of dye sensitized solar cell technology. In this book, the authors present systematic analysis and working principles and detailed studies of individual components, manufacturing methods, software assisted design surrounding the technology market, commercialization potential, and performance evaluations and detailed fabrication methods and parameters. As there is no specific book which could encircle all the aspects of dye sensitized solar cells from its very basic working principles to advanced approached to improve it efficiency, this book fills that gap. Providing a comprehensive study on dye sensitized solar cells, this reference covers basic working principles to advanced approaches in improving efficiency as well as thermodynamic and kinetic studies. It will be ideal for advanced stage researchers and engineers looking to get a grip on DSSC technology. Review Provides a comprehensive study of dye sensitized solar cells and advanced level research on each component of this technology From the Back Cover The technology of dye sensitized solar cell is growing rapidly due to its cost effective and easy fabrication, environmental friendliness and ability to absorb new scientific approaches. Dye-Sensitized Solar Cells: Emerging Trends and Advanced Applications is highly focused on addressing all aspects of the dye sensitized solar cell technology.
