In recent years, dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) have received extensive attention in the field of photovoltaic applications because of their potential advantages such as low cost and high solar light-to-electicity conversion efficiency (η), as reported by Grätzel.[1] Several factors, including sensitizer properties, anode/cathode materials, and the electrolyte used determine the photovoltaic performance of DSSCs.[2, 3] Among these factors, the ...
