Ambient temperature plastic crystal electrolyte for efficient, all-solid-state dye-sensitized solar cell.
Doping the molecular plastic crystal of succinonitrile with solid N-methyl-N-butylpyrrolidinium iodide salt and iodine has produced a highly conductive solid iodide/triiodide conductor. Furthermore, it was employed for a highly efficient, all-solid-state dye-sensitized solar cell.
