Title:
METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING CURRENT COLLECTOR FOR DYE‐SENSITIZED SOLAR CELL COMPRISING POROUS METAL SHEET, CURRENT COLLECTOR FOR DYE‐SENSITIZED SOLAR CELL COMPRISING POROUS METAL SHEET AND DYE‐SENSITIZED SOLAR CELL
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2013/128797
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
Provided is a current collector capable of obtaining higher photoelectric conversion efficiency when being used for a dye-sensitized solar cell. A method for manufacturing current collector for dye-sensitized solar cell comprising a porous metal sheet comprises: a process of forming a sheet made from an alloy of a first metal component and a second metal component; a process of treating the sheet at a temperature lower than the minimum value of liquidus temperature in the phase diagram of the alloy by immersing the sheet in a molten metal bath of a third metal component which has positive heat of mixing for the first metal component and negative heat of mixing for the second metal component, while having a hardening point lower than the melting point of the alloy; and a process of taking the treated sheet from the molten metal bath. The current collector for dye-sensitized solar cell comprising porous metal sheet has a number of through-holes with nano-diameters isotropically communicating with each other with spherical molten metal lumps being mutually fused in three-dimensional directions.
