Abstract

Blood mimetic thixotropy sol–gel electrolytes were prepared and sandwiched between dye-coated porous TiO2 and a platinum counter-electrode to form a dye-sensitized solar cell. The highest overall conversion efficiency of 6.45%, and the fill factor of 0.74 under the white light irradiation AM 1.5 (100 mW cm−2) were obtained.
