Abstract

To design the effective usage of electric double layer capacitors (EDLCs) used for a storage device of dye sensitized solar cell (DSC) energy, we first investigated the accumulation state of electrical charges and the charge behavior in the EDLCs. Based on the results, the voltage characteristics of EDLCs connected to DSC energy were evaluated. The results showed that the charge accumulation region concentrated on the central part of the carbonaceous electrode in EDLCs and the required times for charging and discharging were almost the same.
