In the study of dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs), we find that fill factor (FF) increases with the doping amount of Zn(II) but decreases with the doping amount of W(VI) in TiO2. A single-diode model is established to analyze the dependence of FF on open-circuit voltage (V-oc) and ideal factor (m). This model well explains the changes of FF caused by the doping element and amount, that is, FF increases with the ratio of V-oc/m. This study will shed light on the influencing factors of FF and guide the design of new materials towards high FF for DSSCs. (C) 2011 American Institute of Physics. [doi:10.1063/1.3635788]
