DSSCs have reached certified efficiency of 11.9% and device efficiency of 14.3% using I−/I3− or Co(ii/iii) redox shuttles. But, they have many constraints and Cu(i/ii) electrolytes are found to be best alternatives and the efficiency has crossed 30% under low light conditions, potential applications in Internet of things.

The development of new redox couples provides a clear strategy to improve power conversion efficiency (PCE) in p-type dye-sensitized solar cells (p-DSSCs) through enabling improvements in open-circuit voltage (VOC).
