【 摘 要 】

This rapid consumption and depletion fossil fuels has catalyzed the need for shifting into renewable energy like wind energy, solar energy and tidal energy. One of the most widely used methods is harvesting energy from the sun for use in semiconducting material. For this purpose, photovoltaic (PV) cell also called as solar cells are used. The various trends in the dye sensitized solar cells were discussed with the changes made in photoanode, counter electrode and the redox electrolyte. Especially, graphene materials in the dye-sensitised solar cells is focussed in this review article.
