Quasi-Solid-State Dye-Sensitized Solar Cells for Efficient and Stable Power Generation under Room Light Conditions

摘要: Highly efficient quasi-solid-state dye-sensitized solar cells (QS-DSSCs) are fabricated using nanocomposite gel electrolytes and applied under room light conditions (200 lx). To obtain high energy conversion efficiency in QS-DSSCs, the important components of DSSC systematically optimized based on their performance liquid-state DSSCs. It shows that liquid cell 3-methoxypropionitrile-based cobalt electrolyte has higher (18.91%) than acetonitrile-based (17.82%) 200 lx illumination due to charge recombination resistance at photoelectrode/electrolyte interface for 3-methoxypropionitrile system. Poly(vinylidene fluoride-co-hexafluoropropylene) is utilized as gelator prepare polymer electrolytes. Furthermore, improve different metal oxide nanoparticles introduced nanofillers zinc nanof...
