Abstract

Electron collection efficiency and hence the device performance of a dye sensitized solar cell can be increased by localized surface plasmons (LSP) produced by the thin films of 2% silver doped TiO2 photo electrode. These films of silver doped TiO2 on glass substrates are prepared by pulsed laser deposition (PLD) method and have a lowest grain size of 8-31 nm. XRD, AFM and raman studies are made to characterize the surface at various annealing temperatures and annealing time durations. The lowest grain size of 8 nm of these films developed.
