FABRICATION OF PLATINUM COUNTER ELECTRODES FOR BIFACIAL DYE-SENSITIZED SOLAR CELLS

摘要

A fabrication method for a flexible bifacial dye-sensitized solar cell is described. The method involves forming a flexible counter electrode of crystalline Pt nanoparticles on a first conductive layer by irradiating a precursor solution with a UV lamp. A flexible photoanode is formed by applying metal oxide particles to a second conductive layer, and then the solar cell is constructed by sandwiching an electrolyte between the counter electrode and photoanode.
