Screen-printing technology is used to fabricate large dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs). The high series-resistance associated with transparent conductive oxide glass substrates causes poor performance in large DSSCs especially at an exposure of 1 sun. The DSSC design has an embedded silver grid; a fluorine-doped tin oxide (FTO) glass substrate and stripe type titanium dioxide (TiO2) active layers introduced by screen-printing. The counter electrode is prepared from a screen printable paste based on hexachloro platinic acid. A DSSC module, which consists of five stripe-type working electrodes on a 5 cm x 5 cm, embedded silver grid FTO glass substrate, shows stable performance with an energy conversion efficiency of 5.45% under standard test conditions.
