  • Patent number: 8847067
    Abstract: Disclosed is a dye sensitized solar cell (DSSC) including a substrate having a dye sensitized layer thereon, an opposite substrate having a catalyst layer thereon, a spacer disposed between the substrate and the opposite substrate to define a space, and an electrolyte in the space. The spacer is formed by reacting a photo curable glue including a main oligomer, a photo initiator, a photo curing accelerator agent, a softener, an adhesion enhancer, and a chemical resistance additive.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: February 20, 2012
    Date of Patent: September 30, 2014
    Assignee: Industrial Technology Research Institute
    Inventors: Meng-Chin Tsui, Yung-Liang Tung, Chuan-Ya Hung, Sz-Ping Fu, Chih-Chou Chang

  • Patent number: 8034260
    Abstract: Disclosed is a gel electrolyte for a photosensitive dye and method for manufacturing the same. First, bismaleimide and barbituric acid are dissolved in Brönsted base solution to form a gelling additive. Subsequently, the gelling additive is added into an ionic liquid electrolyte. The liquid electrolyte is then gelled at room temperature to form a gel electrolyte for the photosensitive dye utilized in dye sensitized solar cells. In addition, barbituric acid is further added into the gelling additive to enhance the gelling rate of the ionic liquid electrolyte.
