Abstract
Low molecular weight gelators were applied to solidify the redox electrolyte in dye-sensitized TiO2 solar cells. The resulting quasi-solid-state dye-sensitized solar cells showed comparable efficiency and higher stability than the similar cell with the liquid phase redox electrolyte.Keywords
