Depletion of energy resources and environmental pollution are the major constraints for the sustainability and survival of the modern technical development phase of the world. As an alternate source of renewable energy, solar energy is the most abundant source, which is easily exploitable, inexhaustible, quiet and adjustable to enormous applications. Dye-sensitized/ Pervoskite solar cells have high ability to grab the solar energy and convert it to electrical energy. Therefore, we are concentrating to develop high efficiency and environmental friendly DSSC/Pervoskite cells to fulfill the future energy demand in the world.
