Abstract

An ionic liquid electrolyte composed of 1-methyl-3-propylimidazolium iodide, 1-methyl-3-ethylimidazolium dicyanamide, and lithium iodide (LiI) was combined with an amphiphilic polypyridyl ruthenium sensitizer to obtain a solar cell based on a solvent-free electrolyte that had an efficiency of 6.6% at an irradiance of air mass 1.5 (AM 1.5, 100 mW cm -2 ) and >7.1% at lower light intensities. This is the first time such a high efficiency was obtained for dye-sensitized solar cells with pure ionic liquid electrolytes. A thin-layer electrochemical cell was used to determine the redox potential of sensitizers anchored on TiO 2 nanocrystalline film by square-wave voltammetry. Laser transient absorbance measurements revealed that a significant enhancement of the device efficiency, after adding LiI to the ionic liquid electrolyte, could be ascribed to an increase in the electron injection yield and dye regeneration rate.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
