Low temperature fabrication of efficient porous carbon counter electrode for dye-sensitized solar cells

Free-standing flexible carbon electrode for highly efficient hole-conductor-free perovskite solar cells

“…Conductive carbon materials, especially graphite and carbon black (CB), are abundantly available and low-cost, which have been applied in dye-sensitized solar cells [22][23][24]. Recently, several research groups reported PSCs with carbon materials [25][26][27][28][29][30][31][32][33][34].…”

Fabrication of high performance Pt counter electrodes on conductive plastic substrate for flexible dye-sensitized solar cells

“…Up to now, several kinds of catalytic materials for CEs, such as platinum [5][6][7][8][9][10][11], carbon materials (graphite, activated carbon, carbon black, single-wall carbon nanotubes) [12][13][14][15][16][17], poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT) [18][19][20][21][22], poly(3,3-diethyl-3,4-dihydro-2H-thieno- [3,4-b] [1,4]dioxepine) (PProDOTEt 2 ) [23], polypyrrole [24] and polyaniline [25], have been introduced. However, the best candidate for the CE is Pt due to its highly catalytic effect toward triiodide reaction, superior chemical and electrochemical stabilities.…”

A modified hierarchical porous carbon for lithium/sulfur batteries with improved capacity and cycling stability

“…To solve the above problems, porous carbon has been proved to be an effective strategy as the cathode materials [9][10][11][12]. Attributed to the high surface area and large pore volume of porous carbon, the high utilization of sulfur could be achieved, which is associated with good dispersion of sulfur in the conductive carbon matrix.…”
