Continual escalation of our world population demands a vast and safe energy supply, the
majority of which has been produced by fossil fuel sources. However, because of the huge …

The 70% polyvinyl alcohol/30% polyvinyl pyrrolidone (PVA/PVP) polymer blends, with
different weight ratios of tetrapropylammonium iodide (TPAI) or tetrahexylammonium iodide …

In pursuit of alternative energy, many technologies have been explored over the decades by
research communities. Among these, the utilization of solar radiation by solar cells has been …

Of the emerging low cost solar cells, dye sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) are most promising
as they can be easily fabricated and proven to be efficient and reasonably stable. However …

Ionically conducting gel polymer electrolytes can be used effectively to improve the
problems associated with liquid electrolytes in dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) and in …

To overcome the long-term stability problems of dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSC) due to
solvent evaporation and leakage, gelling the electrolyte with polymers is an appropriate …

One of the major drawbacks in dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSC) is related to the use of a
liquid electrolyte, which limits durability and stability. Part of this problem can be solved by …
