Abstract :
Quasi-solid state dye-sensitized solar cells with high ion conducting polymer electrolyte of three-dimensional network (9.2 mS cm/sup -1/) were constructed. A solar to electrical energy conversion efficiency of 8.1% was obtained under AM 1.5 irradiation by optimization of the polymer contents, electrolyte composition and solvent in polymer electrolyte.
