▎ 摘 要
A simple and high efficient reduced graphene oxide/acetylene black (rGO/ACET) nano-composite electrode was prepared as the substitute of high-cost Pt counter electrode in dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs). Surface-modified method called solvent-substituting (SS) was firstly used to avoid agglomeration of rGO sheets. The Brunner-Emmet-Teller (BET)-specific surface area of rGO was increased from 195.823 to 355.210 m(2)/g after modifying with ethanol. Then ACET particles were introduced between rGO layers to improve the electronic transportation properties. The chemical compositions, microstructures, and pore size distributions of rGO/ACET composites were investigated. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) indicated that rGO/ACET counter electrode had a lower charge transfer resistance (R-ct) and its S-shaped current-voltage curves disappeared obviously. The highest power conversion efficiency up to 6.62% was achieved for the DSSCs with rGO/ACET nano-composite counter electrode.
