Abstract

Using a natural dye (anthocyanin), extracted from a wasted rose residue and characterized by FTIR and UV-visible spectroscopy, a dye-sensitized solar cell (DSC) was fabricated and the current-voltage (I-V) characteristics of the solar cell were studied. The best photovoltaic parameters like short-circuit photocurrent (Isc), open-circuit voltage (Voc), fill factor (FF) were 0.291 mA/cm2, 300 mV, 0.426, respectively, with an energy conversion efficiency of 0.04. Due to environmental friendliness, low-cost production and ease of waste management, natural dyes from rose residue can provide a wide venue for commercial applicability in dye-sensitized solar cells.
