摘要
A tandem dye-sensitized solar cell was fabricated on a glass rod without a transparent conductive oxide layer (TCO-less GR-DSSC). Two model dyes having lambda(max) = 429 nm (Dye II) and lambda(max) = 646 nm (Dye I) respectively were used to examine the potential of the cell. The incident photon to current conversion efficiency (IPCE) curve of the TCO-less GR-DSSC had two peaks at around 490 and 600-650 nm. Open circuit voltage (V(oc)) of the TCO-less GR-DSSC was 1.13V which was the sum of the V(oc) (0.57 V) of each single cell. The results strongly demonstrate that the cell has a tandem character.
