Abstract: ?Dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) have attracted considerable attention as next generation solar cell due to low manufacturing cost and high solar-to-electric power conversion efficiency (PCE) compared to conventional p-n junction solar cells. A PCE of DSSCs is influenced by the amount of light irradiation, the shape of photoelectrode, the amount of dye absorption, the redox couple, the charge transfer resistance of the counter electrode, the internal resistance and the charge recombination at interface. Among them, the amount of light irradiation is an important factor which greatly affects the PCE. Anti-reflection coatings (ARCs) have played an important role in boosting the amount of light entering the device and reducing or suppressing reflection losses, thus enhancing the PCE of the solar cells. In this study, we have applied the ARCs to improve performance of DSSCs. We have optimized the coating parameters for ARCs on glass and investigated the transmittance and photovoltaic performance. The PCE of DSSCs is increased due to enhancement of Jsc.
