Abstract
The present invention relates to a dye-sensitized solar cell (DSC) comprising a porous isolating substrate () having a first surface and a second surface, a first porous layer () comprising conducting particles printed on the first surface of the porous isolating substrate to form a conductive porous layer, a second porous layer () comprising conducting particles printed on the second surface of the porous isolating substrate to form a conductive porous layer, whereby the porous isolating substrate is disposed between the first and second porous layers, a third porous layer () comprising light absorbing dye molecules deposited on the first porous layer, and a charge transfer medium for transferring charges between the third and first porous layers. Each of the porous layers comprise a printed pattern including at least one non-transparent portion () and at least one transparent portion () and the porous isolating substrate comprises at least one transparent portion (), whereby said transparent portions of the porous layers and said transparent portion of the porous isolating substrate are positioned relative to each other so they form at least one continuous transparent pathway through the solar cell.
