초록

염료감응 태양전지(dye-sensitized solar cells, DSCs)는 높은 광전효율과 값싼 제조비용의 매력을 가지고 있어 지난 10년간 활발히 연구되어왔다. 염료감응 태양전지의 에너지 전환은 광자를 흡수한 여기 상태 염료감응제의 나노결정 산화티타늄 반도체 전도대로의 전자 주입에 의해 발생된다. 이러한 염료감응 태양전지는 미래의 에너지 문제를 해결할 수 있는 유망한 청정재생 에너지원으로 기대된다. 본 총설에서는 염료감응 태양전지의 최근 개발 동향과 향후 전망에 대해 조사하였다.

Dye-sensitized solar cells (DSCs) have been under investigation for the past decade due to their attractive features such as high energy conversion efficiency and low production costs. The basis for energy conversion is the injection of electrons from a photoexcited state of a dye sensitizer into the conduction band of the nanocrystalline $TiO_2$ semiconductor upon absorption of light. It is believed that the DSC is one of the most promising candidates for renewable energy sources. In this review, the development trends and perspectives of DSCs are investigated.
