Fabricated for Dye-sensitized Solar Cells using polyethylene oxide - blended polymers based gel Electrolyte

Abstract

: Dye sensitized solar cell with a gel electrolyte has been fabricated using PEO- blended  polymers.  The different weight percentage (weight %) of blended polymers (2%, 4%, 6%,8%) has been synthesized by gel casting techniques. To improve the performance of the device blended polymers was added with different weight percentage of metal nanoparticles of  carbon  (5%,10%, 15%,20%,25%). The gel electrolyte with blended polymers  was characterized by Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC).
