An optimal efficiency of 3.5% was obtained using the D51 dye and an optimized electrolyte compn. The highest IPCE value obtained was 68% at 460 nm.DSSC org redox couple dyeDevelopment of an organic redox couple and organic dyes for aqueous dye-sensitized solar cellstext::journal::journal article::research article
