Problems solved by technology

Platinum counter electrodes are usually prepared by magnetron sputtering (Electrochimi. Acta., 2001, 46, 3457) and thermal decomposition of chloroplatinic acid (J. Electrochem. Soc., 1997, 144, 876), although there are relatively Good catalytic performance and comprehensive performance, but because platinum is a noble metal, these methods have obvious limitations for large-scale production and application

Abstract

The invention belongs to the technical field of dye sensitized solar cells, in particular to a method for preparing a graphene / platinum nano counter electrode material for a dye sensitized solar cell. The method comprises the following steps of: soaking a conducting substrate on which a polyelectrolyte is adsorbed in a graphene suspension, a polyelectrolyte solution and a chloroplatinic acid solution in sequence in an electrostatic self-assembly way to form a self-assembly ultrathin film with a polyelectrolyte / graphene / polyelectrolyte / chloroplatinic acid structure on the surface of the conducting substrate under the action of electrostatic attraction; and sintering and transforming into a 'graphene / platinum nanoparticle' ultrathin film. The film can be taken as a counter electrode material for the dye sensitized solar cell. The preparation method has a simple process, the prepared counter electrode has extremely low platinum load amount, the cost of the counter electrode and the dye sensitized solar cell is greatly lowered, and the method can be applied to large-scale production of assembly line operation.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of dye-sensitized solar cells, and in particular relates to a method for preparing a graphene / platinum nano-counter electrode material for dye-sensitized solar cells. Background technique [0002] Since Professor M. Grötzel introduced the concept of nanoporosity into dye-sensitized wide bandgap TiO in 1991, 2 In semiconductor research, since dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) with an energy conversion efficiency of 7.1% were obtained (Nature, 1991, 353, 737), DSSCs are characterized by their low cost, relatively simple manufacturing process, high The photoelectric conversion efficiency and other characteristics have quickly attracted widespread attention from the international academic and industrial circles. [0003] DSSCs mainly consist of dye-sensitized porous semiconductor nanocrystal films, electrolytes, and counter electrodes. The dye molecules are excited by the light, electrons are injected into th...
