DSSC is a disruptive technology that can be used to produce electricity in a wide range of light conditions, indoors and outdoors, enabling the user to convert both artificial and natural light into energy to power a broad range of electronic devices.

How does DSSC work?Dye Sensitized Solar Cells_cycle
1.The dye is the photoactive material of DSSC, and can produce electricity once it is sensitized by light
2.The dye catches photons of incoming light (sunlight and ambient artificial light) and uses their energy to excite electrons, behaving like chlorophyll in photosynthesis
3.The dye injects this excited electron into the Titanum Dioxide (a white pigment commonly found in white paint)
4.The electron is conducted away by nanocrystalline titanium
