Preparation and Study of the Natural Photosensitizers Extracted from Black Grapes and Beetroot for Dye-Sensitized Solar Cells

    The efficiency of DSSCs depends on the material that absorbs the light and converts it into energy. In this work, two natural dyes were extracted from Black Grapes and Beetroot and used as photosensitizers for DSSCs and compared to solar cells using synthetic dyes as photosensitizers. The experimental results showed that the efficiency of the solar cells that used Black Grapes (DSSC2) as a photosensitizer was 2.246%, which is higher than the solar cells that used Beetroot (DSSC1) as a photosensitizer, which got a value of 2.012%.
