Extraction of natural dye from plants petal (Roses and Melastoma) for DSSC application / Nur Alya Ellysha Yuhanis Yuzi

Dye-Sensitized Solar Cells, or DSSCs, are an affordable and environmentally friendly alternative to silicon-based solar cells that use a photosensitive dye to absorb sunlight to generate electrons, which are transferred via semiconductor (commonly TiO2) to create direct current electricity while the dye is regenerated by a redox electrolyte. Although challenges like long-term stability and efficiency improvements remain, DSSCs are attractive options for realizing sustainable energy generation due to its simple fabrication processes, low-light operability, and flexible, transparent prospects. The present study in quest of best water-extracting methodology from these plant sources, details comparison on perspective of light harvesting, transporter and overall photovoltaic achievement for DSSC applications. These insights are necessary to enhance the green and sustainable deployment of solar energy tech using natural dyes in DSSCs.
