Dye sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) were fabricated using anthocyanin dye and polymer electrolyte with ammonium iodide (NH4I) salt. The study was designed to focus on increasing the efficiency of the DSSC. DSSC using 26.9 wt.% chitosan-22wt.% NH4I(+2.2 wt.% I-2)-48.9wt. % IL solid electrolyte, black...
