Abstract

        In this paper, the fill factor of the N749/TiO2 solar cell is studied and calculated using the analysis method at standard conditions; i.e., T=300k  and  100 mW/cm2 irradiation.. The current density was derived and calculated using the donor-acceptor model according to the quantum transfer theory in DSSC solar cells. We estimate the influence parameters in DSSC that's an equivalent circuit to the I-V curves for three solvents. The fill factor parameters of the N749/TiO2 device are found to be 0.137,0.146 and 0.127 with Butanol, Ethanol           and Acetonitrile for carrier concentration .  1018 1/cm3 respectively. The photovoltaic characteristics ISc  , Vco  , and   Vm   are calculated depending on the current-voltage (J-V) characteristics of the device at room temperature. As a result of the fill factor analysis, N749/TiO2 cells showed different  fill factors dependent  on solvents type for the ISc  and Vco   .
