An alternative ionic liquid based electrolyte for dye-sensitized solar cells.
An ionic liquid based, environmentally friendly electrolyte LiI(C(2)H(5)OH)(4)-I(2) was used as the electrolyte to fabricate dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSC) with energy conversion efficiency of 4.9% under AM 1.5 (100 mW cm(-2)) irradiation.
