中文摘要 | 2-Methyl-4-propoxypyridine, a new pyridine derivative, has been synthesized and used as an additive in the liquid electrolyte of dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs). Compared with 2-methylpyridne and 4-tertpyridine, they were employed to study the influence of the pyridine derivative additives on the rate of recombination at the electrode/dye/electrolyte interfaces and band edge shift of TiO2, which were measured by time-resolved mid-infrared absorption spectroscopy and Mott-Schottky analysis, respectively. It was found that the rate of interfacial charge recombination was enhanced when the pyridine derivative additives were present in the electrolyte. Meanwhile, the additives caused a negative shift of the band edge. However, the net effect of pyridine derivative addition was to improve the open-circuit photovoltage according to the photoelectrochernical measurement, indicating that negative shift of conduction band of TiO2 was a predominant factor in improving the open-circuit photovoltage. Also, the result was strongly supported by the dark current measurement. Therefore, it provides a microscopic account for the function of the pyridine derivative additives on the open-circuit photovoltage enhancement of the DSSCs. Furthermore, the decrease of the short-circuit photocurrent of the cells was also attributed to the slower dye regeneration due to the addition of additives from the results of cyclic voltammetry measurement.
