Exploring alternative Pt-free counter electrode with low cost and high electrocatalytic activity is always a main focus at the frontier of dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs). In this study, a desktop laser engraver was applied to reduce graphene oxide (GO) film on a fluorine-doped tin oxide (FTO) substrate, and the obtained graphene-based material was further used as counter electrode for DSSC. Additionally, this facile laser-scribing method was also adopted to fabricate a prototype of composite electrode via the combination of reduced graphene oxide (RGO) and carbon black (CB) to enhance the specific surface area and active sites. A variety of characterizations including scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Raman spectroscopy, cyclic voltammetry (CV) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) were conducted to investigate the microstructures and catalytic properties of these carbon electrodes. The findings reveal that both of the DSSCs with laser-scribed carbon electrodes show evidently increasing photovoltaic performance, and the DSSC based on RGO/CB composite electrode even presents a higher power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 4.49%, comparable to 4.14% of the conventional Pt-based DSSC.
