A small electron donor in cobalt complex electrolyte significantly improves efficiency in dye-sensitized solar cells
The electrolyte is an important component of dye-sensitized solar cells. Here, Haoet al. use an electron donor additive in the cobalt-based electrolyte, which speeds up the dye regeneration and slows down recombinations. The resulting devices are stable and more efficient than those without additive...
