摘要: A highly environmentally-friendly ubiquinone 10 (UQ10) based I2-free electrolyte, which is inspired by photosynthesis, employed in dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) under 100 mW cm−2 (AM 1.5G) illumination. Profiting from this UQ10 electrolyte a 10% increased power conversion efficiency of 8.18% achieved compared with the traditional one containing I2 (7.44%). The superior performance mainly derived lower visible light wastage and high catalytic activity to counter electrode as revealed photoelectrochemical characterization. Moreover, being widely adopted cardiovascular medicine cosmetics, very safe low-cost choice for DSSCs. With advantages efficiency, bio-safety, universal dye compatibility diversity molecular design, promising be applied DSSCs, perovskite cells.
