Effect of Different Counter Electrodes on Power Conversion Efficiency of DSSCs

Efficient Counter Electrode of MoS2‐GO/PEDOT:PSS for Platinum‐free, High Performance Dye Sensitized Solar Cells

“…To overcome this, considerable research was made to explore alternative CE materials. To replace the expensive platinum CE, various alternatives such as carbon materials, [15][16][17][18][19] conducting polymers such as polyaniline (PANI), [20][21][22] poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT), [23,24] poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) polystyrene sulfonate (PE-DOT:PSS) [25][26][27][28][29][30] and polypyrrole (PPy) [31][32][33][34][35] and inorganic materials including transition metal sulfides, [36][37][38][39][40] nitrides [41,42] and carbides [43,44] have been successfully employed as a CEs in DSSCs.…”

Improvement of the photoelectric dye sensitized solar cell performance using Fe/S–TiO2 nanoparticles as photoanode electrode

“…Since the anode part adsorbs the dye molecule with transport of photo produced electrons that directly locate the efficiency of power conversion and DSSC photon current density. So, its necessary process to choose a suitable material for fabricating of photoanode 10 . Titanium dioxide is most consider utilized material for production of hydrogen, water and air purification, and photoanode fabrication because of many features such as low cost, nontoxicity, thermal stability, high efficiency of energy conversion 11 – 13 .…”
