The dyes as the particularly important material component of the dye sensitized solar cells (DSSC), carry out two functions:absorbing light energy and initiating the electrical current. And the dyes with long-lived charge-separated state can effectively improve electron injection efficiency, suppress charge recombination, and thereby improve device performance. All-solid-state dye-sensitized solar cells (ssDDSC) were fabricated using the charge separation (CS) dyes as photosensitizer and spiro-OMeTAD as hole-transport material. The effect of TiO₂ film thickness on the performance of ssDDSC was analyzed. When the TiO₂ film thickness was 1.2 μm, the device performance was optimal. The influence of dye structure on device performance was also discussed. The ssDSSC based on MTPABT-Pyc has the best performance, with photocurrent of 7.38 mA/cm² and efficiency of 3.06%. The dye MTPABT-Pyc had similar light-harvesting ability compared to the charge-transfer dye (CT type) MTPAcc, but its efficiency is 16% higher than to that of MTPAcc (2.64%). These results indicate that the charge-separated state of the CS-type dye has a superiority for the suppression of charge recombination and the transport of holes.
