Abstract

Nanocomposite polymer electrolytes containing poly(ether urethane) (PEUR)/poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO)/modified SiO₂ were prepared for all-solid-state dye-sensitized solar cells with a high efficiency of 4.86% and an active area of 0.25 cm² under AM1.5 conditions at 100 mW cm⁻² irradiation.
