Tóm tắt

Các phim natri-carboxymethylcellulose (NaCMC) đã được phát triển bằng kỹ thuật đúc dung dịch. Các phim này được ngâm vào một điện giải polysulphide dạng lỏng tối ưu chứa 4 M natri sulfide (Na2S) và 1 M lưu huỳnh (S). Điện giải polysulphide dạng lỏng tối ưu có độ dẫn điện môi trường là (1.46 ± 0.02) × 10-1 S cm-1. Các phim NaCMC đã được ngâm trong các khoảng thời gian khác nhau là 30, 60, 68 và 75 giây. Điện dẫn ion ở nhiệt độ phòng cao nhất (RTIC) là (2.79 ± 0.09) × 10-5 S cm-1, được thể hiện bởi phim NaCMC ngâm trong điện giải polysulphide trong 68 giây. Mối quan hệ dẫn điện-nhiệt độ của các điện phân polymer rắn (SPEs) dựa trên NaCMC tuân theo quy tắc Arrhenius. SPE dẫn điện cao nhất cho giá trị năng lượng hoạt hóa (EA) thấp nhất là 0.38 eV. Hệ số khuếch tán ion (D), độ di động ion (μ) và nồng độ ion tự do (n) của các SPE đã được xác định. Các SPE mới phát triển được sử dụng làm điện giải trong ứng dụng tế bào quang điện nhạy cảm với điểm lượng tử (QDSSCs) với cấu hình FTO/TiO2/CdS/ZnS/SPE/Pt/FTO. Dưới ánh sáng 1000 W m-2, QDSSC với SPE CMC-68 đạt hiệu suất chuyển đổi năng lượng (PCE) cao nhất là 0.90%. Giá trị dòng điện ngắn mạch (JSC) và PCE có mối quan hệ chặt chẽ với thời gian sống của electron và tỷ lệ tái hợp.
