MXene-modified electrodes and electrolytes in dye-sensitized solar cells

Abstract

Dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) have attracted much attention as promising tools in renewable energy conversion technology.

Engineering functionalization and properties of graphene quantum dots (GQDs) with controllable synthesis for energy and display applications

“…2D–2D heterostructures of MXene with rGO and MoS 2 has been demonstrated as an effective alternative to Pt CEs with their large specific surface area. 325 GQDs can be integrated into this structure to further enhance the active sites. For example, CE consisting of N-GQD@MoS 2 @rGO demonstrated higher electrochemical performance than other CEs because of abundant active sites on the N-GQDs (Fig.…”

Investigation on the Possibility of Improving the Performance of a Silicon Cell Using Selected Dye Concentrator

“…However, it is worth adding that other solutions, such as dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSC) or perovskite solar cells, are also subject to optimization. Aftab et al [7] paid attention to MXene-modified electrodes. There are certain hopes associated with them due to their potential to accelerate sustainable energy conversion and thus increase the efficiency of DSSCs.…”

Investigation and development of photocathodes using polyaniline Encapsulated Ti3C2Tx MXene nanosheets for dye-sensitized solar cells

“…MXenes (Ti 3 C 2 T x ) have recently attracted the interest of various researchers because of their unique two-dimensional structure, strong conductivity, and considerable number of cation-interacting sites as well as their low diffusion barrier. 9,10 The discovery and production of the first MXene, Ti 3 C 2 T x , in 2011, has sparked a substantial surge of research in the field of the material. The distinctive structure of this material's thin layer results in a wide range of electron mobility, significantly improving its electrical conductivity.…”
