  • Title: A soft-template-conversion route to fabricate nanopatterned hybrid pt/carbon for potential use in counter electrodes of dye-sensitized solar cells.
    Author: Jang YJ, Jang YH, Quan LN, Kim HC, Pyo S, Kim DH.
    Journal: Macromol Rapid Commun; 2013 Sep; 34(18):1487-92. PubMed ID: 23926029.
    Abstract:
    Hybrid Pt(platinum)/carbon nanopatterns with an extremely low loading level of Pt catalysts derived from block copolymer templates as an alternative type of counter electrodes (CEs) in dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) are proposed. DSSCs employing hybrid Pt/carbon with tailored configuration as CEs exhibit higher short-circuit current and conversion efficiencies as well as stability with a lapse of time compared with conventional cells on the basis of sputtered Pt thin films, evidencing that the new class of hybrid nanostructures possess high potential for cost-effective electrodes in energy conversion devices.
