Dye sensitized solar cells ( DSSCs) have emerged as a promising device to meet the energy needs as an environmentally friendly alternative for the development of sustainable power generation. In this study different types of DSSCs were fabricated using mixed combination between four kinds of Titania (TiO2) semiconductors ,and three kinds of counter electrodes while the sensitized dye was natural pomegranate seeds and the electrolyte was I-/I3 - for all assembled DSSCs.TiO2 semiconductors includes; bulk TiO2 powder (>20μm), 50nm TiO2 powder, hydrothermally nanotubes (HT) TiO2 powder ,and anodized TiO2 nanotubes arrays (TNTs).The counter electrodes include; carbon, electrodeposited platinum (Pt), and electro polymerized polyanilne. The I-V plots and all cell parameters were established using two electrodes potentiostat, the results showed that the activity of anode materials follow the order; TNTs on Ti foil > 50nm TiO2 /ITO glass> HT TiO2/ITO glass > Bulk TiO2/ITO glass While the effectiveness of the counter electrodes obey the order; Pt > PANI > Carbon The best Efficiency (3.27%) achieved using TNTs on Ti foil as active anode and Pt on ITO glass as counter electrode.
