研究目的
Investigating the application of a novel nanohybrid of graphene-based Cu2ZnniSe4 with WO3 nanorods as a counter electrode in dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) to improve photovoltaic performance.
研究成果
The G-CZNS@W nanohybrid exhibited higher electrocatalytic activity toward the triiodide reaction and rapid charge-transferability, showing a photo-conversion efficiency of 12.16%, which is higher than that of the DSSCs fabricated using Pt (4.07%). These results demonstrate that the G-CZNS@W nanohybrid could be used as a platinum-free counter electrode for high-performance DSSCs.
研究不足
The preparation of CE compounds requires either more complicated reaction routes or a long reaction cycle for increased efficiency in DSSCs.

3:List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
Equipment included X-ray diffraction (XRD, Smart Lab 3 kW, Rigaku, Japan), Lambda 950 UV-vis-NIR spectrophotometry, and a calibrated A.M
4:5 solar simulator (Newport). Materials included Fluorine-doped tin oxide (FTO) conducting glass slides, TiO2 powder, and graphene oxide (GO). Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
The synthesis involved hydrothermal methods for G-CZNS@W, followed by characterization and fabrication of DSSCs.
5:Data Analysis Methods:
Data were analyzed using various spectroscopic and electrochemical techniques to evaluate the performance of the nanohybrid as a counter electrode in DSSCs.
