Abstract
This review provides a comprehensive summary of the research advancements made in recent years regarding photoanode, sensitizer, electrolytes, counter electrode materials, and solid-state electrolytes for long-term stable dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs). Its objectives are to facilitate comprehension of the underlying design principles, elucidate the fundamental research, and develop high-performance DSSCs for practical applications.
期刊介绍:
Current Opinion in Colloid and Interface Science (COCIS) is an international journal that focuses on the molecular and nanoscopic aspects of colloidal systems and interfaces in various scientific and technological fields. These include materials science, biologically-relevant systems, energy and environmental technologies, and industrial applications.
Unlike primary journals, COCIS primarily serves as a guide for researchers, helping them navigate through the vast landscape of recently published literature. It critically analyzes the state of the art, identifies bottlenecks and unsolved issues, and proposes future developments.
Moreover, COCIS emphasizes certain areas and papers that are considered particularly interesting and significant by the Editors and Section Editors. Its goal is to provide valuable insights and updates to the research community in these specialized areas.
