This research studied the effect of adding synthetic dye DN-F05 (red dye) to electrical and optical properties. Dye-Sensitized Solar Cell (DSSC) sandwich components are consist of FTO/TiO<sub>2</sub>-Dye-elektrolit-Platina/FTO. In this study, the working electrodes were made by Titanium dioxide (TiO2) which was deposited on FTO glass and then annealed at 450<sup>o</sup>C for 30 minutes. The dye concentration DN-F05 was made with a mass of 0.001 gr, then will be stirred for 2 hours into 5 ml of ethanol at a temperature of 40<sup>o</sup>C. In this study the spin coating method is used with a rotational speed of 1000 rpm for 20 seconds. Characterization of optical properties was carried out using a UV-VIS spectrophotometer to determine the absorbance curve of dye and to get Gap energy. The peak absorbance value was obtained at wavelengths between 400-700 nm. This proved that the addition of DN-F05 dye concentration has a major influence on the optical properties.

Background: In this work, CdS thin films were synthesized by sol-gel method (spin coating technique) on glass substrates to investigate the optical behavior of the film. Methods: Different substrate spin coating speeds of 2400, 3000, 3600 rpm and different Ni dopant concentrations of 0 wt.%, 2.5 wt.%, 5 wt.%) were investigated. The optical properties of thin films such as refraction index, extinction coefficient, dielectric constant and optical band gap energy of the layers were discussed using spectroscopic ellipsometry method in the wavelength range of 300 to 900 nm. Results: It can be deduced that substrate rotation speed and dopant concentration has influenced the optical properties of thin films. By decreasing rotation speed of the substrate which results in films with more thicknesses, more optical interferences were appeared in the results. Conclusion: The samples doped with Ni comparing to pure ones have had more optical band gap energy.

All of the TiO2 films including intrinsic TiO2 film, Zn single doped film with 2.0 at% content and N doped films with 4.0 at%, 6.0 at%, 8.0 at% and 10.0 at% content, were obtained by butyl titanate (Ti(OC4H9)4) as a titanium source, zinc nitrate (Zn(NO3)2·6H2O) as zinc source and urea (H2 NCONH2) as nitrogen source, which was calcined at 600 °C on the glass substrate and Si substrate using sol–gel spin coating method. The structures, morphology and optical properties of various films were analyzed and studied by X ray diffract meter (XRD), ultraviolet-visible spectrophotometer (UV-Vis) and scanning electron microscope (SEM). The results indicated that the main crystal plane of TiO2 film was (101) and any impurity crystal plane didn't appear. All samples had obvious red shifts in the absorbing edge overall and reduced significantly the width of forbidden band, especially, the N doping content with 8.0 at% was surprised to investigate the strongest (101) peak intensity, the sharpest peak type, the best meritocratic orientation, the greatest red shift of the absorption spectrum, the lowest optical band gap value of 3.356 eV, and the highest utilization rate of visible light of the sample. However, the surface morphology of the others films except the N doping content with 8.0 at% is not further improved by co-doping, that is, their surfaces were still rough, had obvious voids and uneven distribution between the grains. Meanwhile, the intensity of the (101) crystalline diffraction peaks of these samples were reduced and the crystalline spacing generally increased after co-doping.
