Done By: Purple7 Group School Name: Arwa Bint Abdul Motaleb Secondary Independent School for Girls Dye-Sensitized Solar Cell (DSSC) Module: The students study the concept of using dyes to plant dyes to capture the solar energy to convert it into electrical energy simulating the natural process “photosynthesis”. They use the workshop-gained knowledge in DSSC to invent new products. Our project idea is about using of organic plants pigments in the science of lighting technology. Especially, using DSSC technique in construction area lightning.
