Platinum-free tungsten carbides as an efficient counter electrode for dye sensitized solar cells

Abstract

Mesoporous tungsten carbides displayed an excellent solar conversion efficiency (7.01%) as a counter electrode for dye sensitized solar cells under 100 mW cm−2, AM 1.5G illumination, which corresponded to ca. 85% of the efficiency of the conventional platinum electrode.
