Abstract

A photovoltaic dye cell for converting a light Into electricity includes an at least partially transparent housing, an electrolyte containing an iodine based redox species, a porous titania film that makes contact with the redox species, and a dye absorbed on a surface of the titania film to convert photons to electrons. The cell also includes at least one flexible conductive carbon sheet to transfer electrons to a current collector associated with the cathode, where the conductive carbon sheet forms a discrete layer conforming to the contours of the titania film.
