Abstract

Gel polymer electrolytes (GPEs) consist of poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO), sodium iodide (NaI) and different amount of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT) were prepared. The conductivity study revealed that the highest ionic conductivity of GPE was 7.02 × 10−3 S cm−1. The structural and complexation between the materials are authenticated via X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy. Under the exposure of AM 1.5, the fabricated DSSCs exhibited the highest photoenergy conversion efficiency of 7.23% with a short circuit current density (JSC) of 18.64 mA cm−2, open circuit voltage (VOC) of 0.590 mV and fill factor (FF) of 65.7%. © 2018 Taylor & Francis.
