Abstract

The invention relates to an application for using phosphoric acid ester compounds in a dye-sensitized solar cell as electrolyte solvent. The phosphoric acid ester compounds has the chemical structural general formula that R1R2 is alkyl and cyano of HC1-12 or alkyl of C1-12 which is replaced by the cyano. R3 is the alkyl of C1-12 or the alkyl of C1-12 replaced by the cyano, and n is equal to 0-12. The application methods of the compounds in the dye-sensitized solar cell are that the compounds dissolve electrolytes to form the electrolytic solvent, and the cell performance is tested after the electrolytic solution is assembled into the cell. The electrolyte solvent provided by the invention has the advantages of high boiling point, wide applied temperature range and difficult volatilization, and increases the service life of the cell; the electrolyte solvent has low viscosity coefficient, satisfaction of dissolution and disassociation of inorganic salts in the solvent, and has high stability to heat, light, chemical agents, etc., cheap raw materials, convenience of synthesis, and benefits for the production and the actual application of the cell.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the application field of organic matter in photoelectric conversion technology, and specifically relates to the application of a class of phosphoric acid ester compounds as electrolyte solvents in dye-sensitized solar cells. Background technique [0002] In 1991, Professor M.Grtzel from Switzerland first proposed dye-sensitized nanocrystalline solar cells. Its structure is to sinter a layer of nanoporous TiO on a conductive glass substrate 2 film, and adsorb a layer of photosensitive dye on it as a photoanode, and the cathode is composed of Pt-coated conductive glass, I 3 - / I - The redox pair exists between the cathode and the anode as the electrolyte or uses a solid electrolyte to replace I 3 - / I - redox pair. This type of battery has become a type of photoelectric conversion device with application prospects due to its advantages such as simple preparation process, low production cost, and excellent photoelectric co...
