Synthesis And Characterization Of Gel Polymer Electrolyte And Zinc Oxide For Photoelectrochemical Cell
This project is divided into three sections: preparation and characterization of gel polymer electrolyte (GPE) based on commercial agar; synthesis and characterization of nanoparticles powders zinc oxide (ZnO); and fabrication of photoelectrochemical cell (PEC). The GPE was prepared by dissolving ag...
