Abstract

The invention discloses a counter electrode of a nickel iron selenide dye-sensitized solar cell. The counter electrode is fabricated by taking nickel chloride, iron chloride and selenium as raw materials and through in-situ synthesis by a one-step method. The raw materials are available, the fabrication method is simple, the obtained counter electrode of the nickel iron selenide dye-sensitized solar cell has relatively good photoelectric conversion efficiency and is expected to substitute a platinum electrode.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of electrode materials, in particular to a counter electrode of an iron-nickel-selenide dye-sensitized solar cell. Background technique [0002] Due to the advantages of low battery cost, high photoelectric conversion efficiency, and no pollution to the environment, dye-sensitized solar cells have been favored by researchers from all over the world since their development. It is very likely to replace silicon cells and become the pillar of the next generation photovoltaic industry product. The platinum electrode has good electrical conductivity, electrocatalytic activity and excellent stability, and proved to be a good counter electrode for dye-sensitized solar cells. However, as a precious metal, platinum has low reserves and high price, and is especially vulnerable to I 3 - / I - Electrolyte corrosion not only deteriorates the battery performance, but also limits the large-scale commercial application of dye-sens...
