- Abstract
- Nylon 6 fibers are used, for the first time, in dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs). The overall energy conversion efficiency obtained with 0.18 M nylon 6 reaches 6.2%, which is comparable to that (6.7%) obtained without adding nylon 6 on the day of cell fabrication. However, it is found that the long-term stability of the DSSCs with nylon 6 is superior to that of a reference electrolyte as a result of the complexation of nylon 6 with I-3(-). Furthermore, nylon 6 is found to be a corrosion inhibitor for silver metal in the electrolyte containing I-3(-).
