This book, a graduate level text that brings together the fundamentals of DSC, starts with a detailed explanation about the basics of solar cell technology and move on to overview some aspects of the historical background, present-scenario, currently popular applications and future prospects of dye sensitized solar cells. The structural aspects and working principle of this promising class of solar cells has been dealt in detail for providing a good understanding of the basics. Some novel schemes in preparation and assembly of dye sensitized solar cell (DSC) have been presented from recent literature reports.
