The study and preparation of polyaniline-graphene oxide as robust counter electrode for dye-sensitized solar cells

The study of alternative materials and platinum-free counter electrodes (CE) for the development of dye- sensitized solar cells (DSSC) has been highlighted nowadays. Polyaniline (PANI) is one of the most common conducting polymers applied in electrochemical energy storage and conversion technologies such as supercapacitors, rechargeable batteries and fuel cells. However, PANI counter electrodes lack long-term stability due to their low surface area and large volume changes during the release of ions. In that regard, this research work focused on the modification of protonated PANI with graphene oxide (GO) at various weight percentages (wt%) in order to obtain robust CE in DSSC. The structure and formation of PANI, GO and PANI/GO were characterized by Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) analyses. The absorption spectra showed all the characteristic bands of GO, PANI(ES) and PANI/GO. Meanwhile, the incorporation of GO into PANI has enhanced the crystallinity of the composite. As a result, power conversion efficiency (PCE%) of the device with PANI/GO 3 wt% as the counter electrode reaches 6.39%. The excellent photoelectric properties, simple preparation procedure and inexpensive cost allow the PANI/GO electrode to be a credible alternative for DSSCs.
