Supercapacitor and dyesensitized solar cell based on quasi-solid state polymer electrolyte and iron cobaltite electrode / Farish Irfal Saaid

Electrochemical devices based on liquid electrolytes are known to have high performance. However, problems associated with liquid electrolytes are electrolyte leakage, volatilization and corrosion of the electrode. The quasi-solid state polymer electrolytes (QSSPEs) are used in these devices to over...
