Problems solved by technology

Conductive glass has good stability in iodine-containing solutions, but its high resistance will affect the expansion of battery scale; and low-resistance substrates, such as metals, are easily corroded in solutions containing iodine electrolytes, and cannot use
In addition, due to the transparency of the conductive glass, part of the light passes through the battery and cannot be effectively absorbed, thereby reducing the photoelectric conversion efficiency.

Abstract

The invention is related to new type catalysis counter electrode and preparation method. The counter electrode is prepared through following steps: fixing a layer of nickel base alloy on side face of the substrate, and fixing metal layer in ultrathin on external side face of the said nickel base alloy. Nickel base alloy possesses high light reflectivity and high conductivity. Ultrathin metal layer possesses high activity of electrocatalysis for oxidation-reduction reaction of iodine. Combination of both features is able to raise light absorption efficiency of battery, lowers ohm loss and electrochemical polarization loss so as to raise photoelectric conversion efficiency. The disclosed counter electrode possesses good stability in corrosion operation environment of battery. Thus, the counter electrode is suitable to dye sensitized solar cell specially.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of solar cells, and relates to a novel catalytic counter electrode for dye-sensitized nanocrystalline thin-film solar cells and a preparation method thereof. The counter electrode comprises a layer of nickel base alloy on the base material and an ultrathin metal layer with electrocatalytic activity on the nickel base alloy layer. Background technique [0002] In dye-sensitized nanocrystalline thin film solar cells, electrons flow into the counter electrode from the external circuit and then pass through the upper I of the electrode interface. 3 - / I - The oxidation-reduction reaction enters the solution to realize the cycle work of the battery. The requirements for the counter electrode of this battery are low resistance, high catalytic activity and good stability in the electrolyte. There are currently two types of counter electrodes that can be used, platinum electrodes and platinum-loaded electrodes. ...
