Abstract

In this work, several liquid electrolytes (LE) have been prepared. The electrolytes contain tetrapropylammonium iodide (TPAI) salt with different salt content, propylene carbonate (PC), ethylene carbonate (EC), polyethylene oxide (PEO), dimethylformamide (DMF) and (I-/I3-) redox couple LE was used in the Dye-Sensitized Solar Cell (DSSC). DSSCs were fabricated and current density-voltage (J-V) characteristics measured. The highest incident photon conversion efficiency (IPCE) at 520 nm is 45.5% for DSSC with 0.25 g TPAI LE. At AM 1.5, DSSC with LE exhibits efficiency of 6.61% with Jsc= 18.69 mA cm-2, Voc= 0.68V and fill factor (FF) = 0.52.
