FK102 Co(II)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. When paired with suitable co-additives, it facilitates efficient charge transfer and improves photovoltaic performance. Compared to conventional triiodide-based electrolytes, cobalt complexes such as FK102 Co(II)PF₆ deliver higher photovoltages and superior stability. Their advantages are particularly evident under low-light conditions, such as indoor environments, where they significantly enhance power output. This makes FK102 Co(II)PF₆ a valuable component in next-generation solar energy conversion technologies.
