TiO2 nanoparticles have been used extensively to increase the interfacial surface area in Dye Sensitized Solar Cells. Nanoparticle films are general made by screen printing a paste of titania nanocrystals and then sintering the particles together at 450-500°C.

Torrey Hills HENGLI furnaces have secured a dominating position in the supply of DSSC application furnaces. The furnaces' uniform and high-precision heating is indispensible for the improvement of DSSC performances.

Dye Senstitized Solar Cell Drying furnace

HSG3003-0402 Drying Furnace

DSSCs are dried after passing through preheating, drying, and cooling zones. Infrared quartz heating tube heats the cells efficiently from the top and bottom of the furnace.

Dye Sensitized Solar Cell Firing Furnaces

HSH3003-0607Z Firing Belt Furnace

This furnace is used for glass conductor activation and the firing of busbars, working electrodes and counter electrodes. Infrared quartz heating tube heats the solar cells efficiently from the top and bottom of the furnace.

HSK3505-0711N Belt Furnace

This sintering furnace allows the titanium dioxide nanocrystals to melt particially together in order to ensure electrical contact and mechanical adhesion on the glass. FEC (fully enclosed coil) heaters are located on the top and bottom of the process chamber. The furnace is integrated with clean stainless steel muffle and nitrogen atmoshphere distribution system.
