Abstract
Mathematical models based on first principles can describe individual processes occurring inside dye-sensitized solar cells as well as overall cell performances. In particular, the temporal variation of the overall J-V cell performance as well as spatial and temporal variations of iodide ion, triiodide ion, and electron concentrations inside a cell can be described by a macroscopic-scale first-principles model. This chapter explains how such a macroscopic-scale model can be developed and reviews the applications of such a model for estimating cell parameters, gaining insight into cell internal processes, describing the overall temporal behavior of a cell, and investigating the effects of polymer-electrolyte chemistry on interfacial properties and overall cell performance.
