Problems solved by technology

Due to this problem, it is difficult to manufacture dye-sensitized solar cells with excellent temporal stability using the transfer printing method
In addition, although the transfer method has the advantage of not having to consider the material of the substrate to be transferred, when the porous layer is transferred to the substrate to be transferred, there is still a fundamental problem that the porous layer is damaged. problem, thus having a problem of poor practicality
[0010] In addition, in general, since the energy conversion efficiency of dye-sensitized solar cells is lower than that of silicon solar cells, etc., an oxide semiconductor capable of further improving the energy conversion efficiency of dye-sensitized solar cells is required. electrode

Embodiment 1

[0527] 1. Formation of porous layer

[0528] (1) Formation of layer for oxide semiconductor layer formation

[0529] As a coating solution for forming an oxide semiconductor layer, titanium oxide paste Ti-Nanoxide D (manufactured by Solaronix) with a particle size of about 13 nm was used. °C for 30 minutes.

[0530] (2) Firing

[0531] The layer for forming an oxide semiconductor layer was fired at 500° C. for 30 minutes under an atmospheric pressure atmosphere using an electron muffle furnace (P90 manufactured by Denken Co., Ltd.). Thus, a porous layer formed as a porous body is obtained.

[0532] 2. Formation of the first electrode layer

[0533] As the first electrode layer forming composition, a composition obtained by dissolving 0.1 mol / l of indium chloride and 0.005 mol / l of tin chloride in ethanol was prepared. Thereafter, the heat-resistant substrate that has been fired is set on a flat baking pan (400° C.), with the porous layer upward, and the first electrode is...

Embodiment 2

[0549] A dye-sensitized solar cell was fabricated by the same method as in Example 1 except that a porous layer was formed by the following method.

[0551] (1) Formation of interlayer forming layer

[0552] As a coating solution for interlayer formation, TiO with a primary particle size of 20 nm 2 Particles (P25 manufactured by Nippon Aerosil Co., Ltd.) and acrylic resin (molecular weight: 25,000, glass transition temperature: 105° C.) (BR87 manufactured by Mitsubishi Rayon Co., Ltd.) reached 1% by mass, and the resin was dissolved in a paint shaker (paintshaker). After being dissolved in methyl ethyl ketone and toluene, the TiO 2The fine particles were dispersed to prepare a coating liquid for interlayer formation. On an alkali-free glass substrate (thickness: 0.7 mm) prepared as a heat-resistant base material, this coating liquid for interlayer formation was coated with a wire bar, and dried.

[0567] As a coating solution for interlayer formation, TiO with a primary particle size of 20 nm 2 The particle (Nippon Aerosil Co., Ltd. P25) is 1% by mass, and the main component is polymethylmethacrylate acrylic resin (molecular weight: 25,000, glass transition temperature: 105°C) (Mitsubishi Rayon Co., Ltd. BR87) is 10% by mass. After the homogenizer dissolves the resin in methyl ethyl ketone and toluene, the TiO 2 The fine particles were dispersed to prepare a coating liquid for interlayer formation. This coating solution was coated on an alkali-free glass substrate (thickness: 0.7 mm) prepared as a heat-resistant base material using a wire bar, and dried. Thereafter, masking was performed in a region of 1 cm×1 cm, and regions other than the region were dissolved and removed with methyl ethyl ketone, thereby obtaining a pattern for forming an interlayer having a region of 1 cm×1 cm.
