POLYMER ELECTROLYTE FOR DYE-SENSITIZED SOLAR CELLS AND A FABRICATION METHOD OF DYE-SENSITIZED SOLAR CELLS USING THE POLYMER ELECTROLYTE

摘要

This disclosure provides polymer electrolytes for dye-sensitized solar cells and methods for manufacturing modules of dye-sensitized solar cells using the same, and more specifically to polymer electrolytes for dye-sensitized solar cells that can not only prevent electrolyte from leaking which is one of the worst drawbacks in conventional dye-sensitized solar cells using liquid electrolytes, but also exhibit a higher solar conversion efficiency compared with conventional polymer electrolytes and be applicable to a process for manufacturing dye-sensitized solar cells with a large surface area or flexible dye-sensitized solar cells, and methods for manufacturing modules of dye-sensitized solar cells using the same. The polymer electrolyte for a dye-sensitized solar cell in accordance with the present disclosure comprises a heat-curable epoxy resin, an imidazole-based curing accelerator, and metal salts, and a method for manufacturing a module of dye-sensitized solar cells using the polymer electrolyte for a dye-sensitized solar cell, is characterized by using the above polymer electrolyte for a dye-sensitized solar cell, wherein the polymer electrolyte for a dye-sensitized solar cell is used as an adhesive product between a working electrode and a counter electrode and a final form of bonding is maintained in a solid phase.
