Summary: In this research, the addition of sodium benzenesulfonate (SBS) to modify PEDOT:PSS layer improved the performance of perovskite solar cells (PSCs) by enhancing energy-level alignment, reducing charge recombination, and increasing grain size and crystallinity of the perovskite film. This modification led to an increase in the power conversion efficiency (PCE) and open-circuit voltage (V-OC) of the inverted PSCs. Furthermore, the unencapsulated PSCs remained highly efficient even after 20 days of storage in ambient conditions.

Summary: This study focuses on the fabrication of a poly(3,4-ethylene dioxythiophene) decorated MXene composite electrode and tests its performance as a counter electrode in dye-sensitized solar cells. The results show that the composite electrode exhibits good electrocatalytic activity and charge transfer kinetics in the iodide/triiodide electrolyte, surpassing the performance of traditional counter electrodes. The 15-day stability investigation demonstrates that the composite electrode has good corrosion resistance. Therefore, the composite electrode shows potential as a substitute for platinum.

Summary: Graphene films have high electrical conductivity and good mechanical strength, making them ideal for use in supercapacitors. However, their low elastic deformation ability limits their application in stretchable supercapacitors. By combining graphene with a conductive polymer hydrogel, the resulting composite film exhibits improved ductility and higher specific capacitance. A proof-of-concept planar supercapacitor using this graphene-conductive polymer hydrogel composite film as electrodes retains excellent electrochemical performance even under stretching conditions.
