The role of the counter electrode in the dye-sensitized solar cell (DSSC) mechanism is to collect the electrons received from the external circuit, and mainly to catalyse the reduction of tri-iodide ions in the electrolyte system. The faster tri-iodide reduction, the faster oxidized dye molecules ar...
