FK102 Co(III)PF₆ salt is a cobalt-based complex widely utilized as a redox electrolyte in dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) and as a hole transport or dopant material in perovskite solar cells. By facilitating efficient charge transfer, FK102 Co(III)PF₆ enhances device stability and power conversion efficiency. Compared with conventional triiodide-based electrolytes, cobalt complexes such as FK102 Co(III)PF₆ provide higher photovoltages and improved long-term performance. These benefits are particularly pronounced under low-light conditions, such as indoor environments, where they significantly boost energy output. This makes FK102 Co(III)PF₆ a valuable component in next-generation photovoltaic technologies for both outdoor and indoor applications.
