Abstract Organic photovoltaic solar cells based on metal-dye or sensitized dye-SnO2 junctions are formed. The electrical and photovoltaic characteristics of these Schottky junctions have been studied on two pure and sensitized dyes (Eriochrome Blue Black B and Rodamine B). From the photovoltaic action spectra the active region responsible for electric power generation was found to be confined to the SnO2-dye interface. The effect of sensitization, electrode material and intensity on photovoltaic and electrical parameters has also been discussed in detail. Finally theC-V characteristics are discussed in detail.
