Abstract

The photogalvanic cell containing dioctylsulfosuccinate micellar species, mannitol as an electron donar and safranine as photosensitizer has been used for solar energy conversion and storage. The electrical output of the cell was 870.0 mV as photopotential 150.0 μA as photocurrent and 130.5 μW as power at power point of the cell. The current voltage characteristics of the cell have been studied, and observed conversion efficiency was 0.7603%; determine fill factor was 0.50. The performance of the cell in dark was 40.0 minutes.
