Statistical optimisation of process parameters on the efficiency of N-TiO2 dye sensitised solar cell using response surface methodology (RSM)

In this study, nitrogen doped titanium dioxide-based dye-sensitised solar cell was successfully fabricated using screen printing technique to discover the optimisation of process parameters for the solar cell efficiency using response surface methodology (RSM). Parameter optimisation has been a majo...
