Dye doped polymers (DCPs) has a wide application based on their optical and electrochemical properties. Dye sensitisation of conducting polymeric materials has gained a wide theoretical interest and practical application in sensors and solar cell technology. This review gives a broad summary on synthesis, the effect of the presence of dye in the polymer (properties, structure and conductivity), application in sensors and dye sensitised solar cells. Different sensing modes are also discussed as well as the effects of post polymer modification with dyes in sensors. In solar cells, the role of DCPs in light harvesting is summarised using examples. Finally, perspectives and the advantages of dye modification or sensitisation of polymers in sensors and solar cells are included.

Solar Cell Technology

This article aims to analyze students' understanding of the purpose of solar cell technology. Because the role of students is very important in developing one of the renewable energies that is solar cells. There are still many people who have not seen other benefits from the sun, as well as ways to use solar energy for other processes, such as the use of solar cells in households and so on. Most of humans have not seen other ways and benefits of solar energy. So that to socialize the use of solar cell technology, students need to understand how important solar energy is as a renewable energy and how to use it. The method used in this study used quantitative descriptive, with the sample of 2019 class of physics education students.Keywords: Solar cell, Environment, Renewable.

This paper provides a survey of the advance in the literature of nanomaterials for dye sensitized solar cell. The survey highlights that most exploratory studies focus on variable nanomaterials the role of dye sensitized solar cell. The positive role of photoelectrochemical system fact, there are some methodological reservations about the outputs from these exploratory studies. A general observation from these studies is that the literature produced the antithetically results and there is no consensus neither on the existence.

Hole Transport Layer

Research in solar cells is needed to maximize Indonesia’s vast solar potential that can reach up to 207.898 MW with an average radiation of 4.8 kWh/m2/day. Organometallic perovskite solar cells (PSCs) have gained immense attention due to their rapid increase in efficiency and compatibility with low-cost fabrication methods. Understanding the role of hole transport layer is very important to obtain highly efficient PSCs. In this work, we studied the effect of Hole Transport Layer (HTL) to the performance of perovskite solar cell. The devices with HTL exhibit substantial increase in power conversion efficiency, open circuit voltage and short circuit current compared to the device without HTL. The best performing device is PSC with CuSCN as HTL layer, namely Voc of 0.24, Isc of 1.79 mA, 0.27 FF and efficiency of 0.09%.

This paper gives an overview of the development and prospect of nanotechnologies utilized in the solar cell applications. Even though it is not clearly pointed out, nanostructures indeed have been used in the fabrication of conventional solar cells for a long time. However, in those circumstances, only very limited benefits of nanostructures have been used to improve cell performance. During the last decade, the development of the photovoltaic device theory and nanofabrication technology enables studies of more complex nanostructured solar cells with higher conversion efficiency and lower production cost. The fundamental principles and important features of these advanced solar cell designs are systematically reviewed and summarized in this paper, with a focus on the function and role of nanostructures and the key factors affecting device performance. Among various nanostructures, special attention is given to those relying on quantum effect.

The three dimensional photovoltaic cell is revolutionary silicon solar cell, design to maximize the conversion of sunlight into electricity. It is like container rather than plane conventional solar cell and has ‘High Efficiency Design to produce 200% of the Power Output of the Conventional Solar Cells’. Three dimensional solar has a special feature on the surface to capture more light in the morning and evening hours, as well as in the winter months when the sun is not directly overhead. Unlike conventional solar cells where electrical contact wires run on the top of the cell, blocking sunlight, three dimensional solar cell use a network of contact wires run below the light collector. Solar Tree is energy generating and harvesting tree, in order to increase efficiency “SPIRALLING PHYLLATAXY” technique is applied. It is way of mounting the three dimensional solar panel (leaf) on the top such a way that maximum sunlight incident on it. It can be applied in street lightening system, industrial power supply etc. It is much better than traditional photovoltaic solar system in area point of viewandalso more efficient. It is perfect solution for future energy needandFibonacci Sequence SolarTree is one of advance solar tree. After using three dimensional solar cell in solar tree, the investment payback period of solar panel systems is40%more than conventional solar panel systems.
