The photo-generated electron injection yield of dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) based on donor-acceptor conjugated dyes is lowered by the aggregation of surface adsorbed organic dyes that pose a low-photoenergy conversion efficiency. Coadsorbates used to prevent the aggregation cause to decompose or detach the dye molecules anchored on the TiO2 surface. In this study, the effect of coadsorption of organic acid and organic dyes on photovoltaic performances was systematically scrutinized by means of adsorption isotherms and photovoltaic measurements. Our laboratory synthesized {0 1 0}-faceted TiO2 (PA TiO2) and P25 TiO2 were used as mesoporous nanocrystals, D149 organic dye was used as a sensitizer and cheno-deoxycholic acid, CDA, was used as a coadsorbate. The coadsorption of CDA reduces the adsorption parameters, maximum adsorption density (Q(m)) and adsorption constant (K-ad), and the reduction depended on the type of TiO2. The photovoltaic performance indicates that the D149 dye has the best dye coverage at around 70% for the effective photovoltaic energy conversion. The coadsorption of CDA increased the photovoltaic performances of DSSCs based on P25 TiO2 but, CDA decreased the photovoltaic performances of DSSCs based on PA TiO2 due to the reduction of the dye coverage below 70%. The results suggest that the coadsorption of organic acids is not necessary if the particular TiO2 can maintain its coverage at the best coverage. Thus, the requirement of coadsorbates to reduce the dye aggregation depends on the type of TiO2 used in DSSCs.
