摘要

该研究代表了一种新的2D/3D异质结构的MXene/NiCo2S4复合材料，首次被用作无pt染料敏化太阳能电池（DSSCs）的高性能反电极材料。2D-MXene/3D-NiCo2S4的独特形貌有利于产生良好的电极/电解质界面接触，通过强烈的电子转移和离子扩散提高电催化活性。循环伏安法、Tafel极化和电化学阻抗谱测量证实，2D-MXene薄片/3D-NiCo2S4纳米颗粒的分层互连和聚集导致了快速电荷传输和快速氧化还原反应动力学。因此，用2D-MXene/3D-NiCo2S4对电极组装的DSSC器件的光伏转换效率高达8.76%，而标准Pt对电极组装的器件的光伏转换效率为8.46%。这些发现为实现无pt、高性能2D/3D分层异质结构作为下一代光伏器件的极好对电极提供了一个全新的设计概念。

MXene/NiCo2S4 2D/3D Heterostructure as a High-Performance Pt-Free Counter Electrode for DSSCs

This study represents a novel 2D/3D heterostructure of MXene/NiCo₂S₄ composites, which were used for the first time as a high-performance counter-electrode material for Pt-free dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs). The unique morphology of 2D-MXene/3D-NiCo₂S₄ proved advantageous in producing good electrode/electrolyte interfacial contact, enhancing the electrocatalytic activity via vigorous electron transfer and ion diffusion. Cyclic voltammetry, Tafel polarization, and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy measurements confirmed that hierarchical interconnection and aggregation of 2D-MXene sheets/3D-NiCo₂S₄ nanoparticles lead to both fast charge transport and rapid redox reaction kinetics. Consequently, the DSSC device assembled with the 2D-MXene/3D-NiCo₂S₄ counter electrode exhibited a higher photovoltaic conversion efficiency of up to 8.76 % compared to that of the standard Pt counter electrode-assembled device (8.46 %). These findings offer a perspective design concept for materializing the Pt-free, high-performance 2D/3D hierarchical heterostructure as a superb counter electrode of next-generation photovoltaic devices.
