Dye-sensitized solar cells (DSCs) using solid-state hole conductor, poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT), were fabricated using in-situ photoelectrochemical polymerization giving short-circuit photocurrent density of 3.20 mA cm(-2), open-circuit voltage of 0.77 V, and fill factor of 0.50, and the resulting overall conversion efficiency of 1.25% on average under air mass 1.5 conditions. Furthermore, the electron transport properties of the DSCs based on PEDOT (PEDOT/DSCs) were analyzed using light intensity modulation induced photocurrent and photovoltage decay (SLIM-PCV) measurements and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy ( EIS) measurements, and then compared to those of the DSCs based on organic liquid electrolyte containing I-/I-3(-) as redox couple (liquid iodide/iodine electrolyte-DSCs, iodide/DSCs for short). The effective filling of PEDOT in the mesopores of dyed TiO2 layers is an important key to achieve the respectable conversion efficiency of PEDOT/DSCs that is comparable with iodide/DSCs.
