Enhanced performance of dye sensitized solar cells utilizing platinum electrodeposit counter electrodes
Enhanced performance was observed for dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) utilizing counter electrodes based on Pt electrodeposits compared to counter electrodes based on sputtered Pt. Scanning electron microscopy of Pt electrodeposits revealed that the use of an initial cathodic overpotential pulse followed by steady electrodeposition at a mild cathodic potential yielded ∼40nm particles, compar...

متن کاملFlexible and platinum-free dye-sensitized solar cells with conducting-polymer-coated graphene counter electrodes.
Dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) have emerged as a high-efficiency, low-cost alternative to solid-state silicon solar cells. Typically, DSSCs are composed of a mesoporous titania nanocrystal electrode on a transparent conductive oxide (TCO) substrate with ruthenium-based sensitizers on the titania nanocrystals, platinum on the TCO substrate as a counter electrode, and iodine/iodide electrolyt...
متن کاملNitrogen-doped graphene foams as metal-free counter electrodes in high-performance dye-sensitized solar cells.
Owing to their low-cost production, simple fabrication, and high energy conversion efficiency, dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) have attracted much attention since Oregan and Gr tzel s seminal report in 1991. A typical DSSC device consists of a dye-adsorbed TiO2 photoanode, counter electrode, and iodide electrolyte. The counter (cathode) electrode plays a key role in regulating the DSSC devic...
متن کاملLow-cost and high-performance CoMoS4 and NiMoS4 counter electrodes for dye-sensitized solar cells.
Porous chalcogels CoMoS4 and NiMoS4 made by a facile solution reaction displayed good electrocatalytic activity in the redox reaction of the I(-)/I3(-) shuttle. Dye-sensitized solar cells with these ternary compounds as counter electrodes (CEs) showed photovoltaic performance similar to the devices made with noble metal platinum CE (7.46%).
