Abstract
An electrolyte-sealing structure for a dye-sensitized solar cell includes: a pair of opposing substrates; a fluid electrolyte sealed between the substrates; a thermoplastic resin layer positioned in such a way as to laminate the pair of substrates together while providing an area in which the fluid electrolyte is to be sealed; and a siloxane-containing layer between each of the substrates and the thermoplastic resin.
Claims4
An electrolyte-sealing structure for a dye-sensitized solar cell, having:
- a pair of opposing substrates;
- a fluid electrolyte sealed between the substrates;
- a thermoplastic resin layer disposed to laminate the pair of substrates together while providing an area in which the fluid electrolyte is sealed;
- and
- a siloxane-containing layer disposed between each of the substrates and the thermoplastic resin layer.
2 more elements
A manufacturing method of electrolyte-sealing structure for a dye-sensitized solar cell, comprising:
- forming a siloxane-containing layer on bonding surfaces of a pair of substrates having the respective bonding surfaces;
- forming a thermoplastic resin layer, in a manner providing an area in which fluid electrolyte is to be sealed, on top of the siloxane-containing layer formed on the bonding surface of at least one of the substrates;
- laminating the pair of substrates together with their bonding surfaces facing each other;
- and
- introducing fluid electrolyte between the pair of substrates before or after the substrates are laminated, followed by sealing the fluid electrolyte.
