Report Information for Project 2: Solid Organic Electrolytes

Abstract

Non-volatile, non-flammable and polymerizable ionic liquid (IL) electrolytes for high-performance dye sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) have been synthesized and characterized. These ILs serve as promising electrolytes for advanced dye sensitized solar cells (DSSCs). We have characterized the thermo-physical and electrochemical properties of these ILs for DSSC-specific applications. Computer simulations have been performed to understand the structural properties of the new electrolytes/nano-composite systems.
