Dye-sensitized solar cells concocted with dyes extracted from fresh and dried leaves of Henna using different solvents

Fresh and dried leaves of Lawsonia inermis (Henna) were used in extracting dyes with variety solvents such as ethanol, acetone distilled water. To our knowledge, has been for the first time solvent to extract henna dye. These extracted sensitizers Dye-Sensitized Solar Cells (DSSCs). A sum six DSSCs fabricated. Spectroscopic studies (UV–Visible FTIR) recorded all photo-anodes prepared. J–V Characterization study was performed cells parameters Voc, Jsc, Vm, Jm, fill-factor efficiency calculated prepared cells. sensitizer from water reported time. It seen that amongst prepared, one dye using showed higher 0.351% 0.3765.
