Abstract
We have constructed p-n heterojunction solar sandwich cells with photo sensitizer in a thin film of reluctant placed between a conducting glass coated with indium oxide and a platinum foil. The current-voltage elations of the cells have been measured in the dark and light under both forward and reverse biases.
