Graphical Abstract: This research systematically investigates the impact of porphyrin and chlorophyll dyes derived from Syzygium Paniculatum on Dye-Sensitized Solar Cells (DSSC) performance, aiming to achieve maximum solar cell efficiency. The investigation involves utilizing fluorine-doped tin oxide coating with a TiO2-ZnO composite. Results demonstrate that DSSCs based on TiO2-ZnO: Al + chlorophyll produce an efficiency of 13.32%, while porphyrin (2:2:0.1) and (2:2:0.2) produce efficiencies of 8.91% and 13.95%, respectively. These findings highlight the potential of utilizing natural dyes for enhancing DSSC performance.
