Abstract :

The requirement for energy is ever increasing in recent days due to the rapid urbanization and industrialization, and the need for the innovation of clean energy and eco–friendly technologies is of prime importance in the present scenario. Solar energy is abundant in nature and is a promising alternative due to its remarkable benefits on comparison with the other available renewable energy technologies. Dye Sensitized solar cell commonly referred to as DSSC, is a third generation solar cell and it is basically used for the conversion of abundantly available solar energy into electrical energy. In this paper, a crisp review has been made on DSSC and its working principle with special emphasis on the various natural dyes and their reported conversion efficiencies.
