Dye-Sensitized Solar Cells Based on Polymer Electrolytes
Dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) using organic liquid electrolytes have received significant attention because of their low production cost, simple structure and high power conversion efficiency [1-5]. Recently, the power conversion efficiencies of DSSCs using Ruthenium complex dyes, liquid electrolytes, and Pt counter electrode have reached 10.4 % (100 mW/cm2, AM 1.5) by Grätzel group [6]. H...
متن کاملQuasi solid state dye - sensitized solar cells based on polyvinyl alcohol ( PVA ) electrolytes containing I − / I − 3 redox couple
Quasi solid state dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) have been fabricated with electrolytes containing I−/I3 redox couple using 80 % hydrolyzed polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) doped with potassium iodide (KI) and a mixture of potassium iodide and tetrapropyl ammonium iodide (Pr4NI) salts. The quasi solid state gel polymer electrolytes were prepared using 1:1 ethylene carbonate (EC):propylene carbonate ...
متن کاملInvestigation of Indigo/thioindigo Tandem Dye-Sensitized Solar Cells
In this paper we used two free-metal organic dyes (dye 1 and dye 2) based on indigo and thioindigo with cyanoacrylic acid as the electron acceptor group. The proposed dyes were sensitized from naphalene as the starting material by standard reactions and characterized by different analytical techniques and UV-Visible spectroscopy after purification. Spectrophotometric measurements of the organic...
متن کاملHighly efficient catalysts for Co(II/III) redox couples in dye-sensitized solar cells.
We developed several low-cost catalysts with high catalytic activity, which were used as counter electrodes in dye-sensitized solar cells (DSCs). They showed higher efficiencies than that of Pt. The efficiencies were improved by 18-42% for the DSCs composed of active carbon, niobium dioxide, ordered mesoporous carbon and commercial titanium carbide.
متن کاملIonic Liquid Based Electrolytes for Dye-Sensitized Solar Cells
1.1 New type of solar cell: dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) The rising price of fossil fuels, together with their rapid depletion and the pollution caused by their combustion, is forcing us to find sources of clean renewable energy. Fortunately, the supply of energy from the sun to the earth is gigantic, i.e., 3 × 1024 joule a year or about ten thousand times more than what mankind consumes ...
