研究目的
To develop a composite nanomaterial (MoS2@Co3S4) with a hollow Co3S4 supported MoS2 nanosheet structure using metal organic framework compounds (MOFs) as self-sacrificing templates by hydrothermal method for application as a high-efficiency liquid-state solar cell counter electrode.
研究成果
The hollow Co3S4 polyhedral loaded MoS2 nanosheet composite MoS2@Co3S4-0.5 was successfully prepared by hydrothermal method using Co-imidazole polymer ZIF-67 as carrier. This composite material exhibited excellent photoelectric conversion efficiency (PCE) of 7.86% in DSSCs, surpassing the performance of Pt CE (6.99%). The structure effectively increases the specific surface area, exposes more catalytic active sites, and facilitates the diffusion and transfer of redox couples, making it a promising low-cost alternative to Pt in DSSCs.
研究不足
The study does not explicitly mention limitations, but potential areas for optimization could include the scalability of the synthesis process and the long-term stability of the composite material under operational conditions.
