Current–voltage measurements were carried out in ambient air under AM 1.5G illumination using a self-calibrating Sinus-70 solar simulator (Wavelabs, Leipzig, Germany). An X200 source meter (Ossila, Sheffield, UK) was used to assess solar cell performance (scan speed 100 mV s−1). A mask was employed to confine the active solar cell area to 0.16 cm2. Ambient light characterization was carried out with a Warm White 930 18 W fluorescent tube (OSRAM, Munich, Germany), and a PGSTAT 100 potentiostat (Metrohm Autolab, Utrecht, The Netherlands) was utilized to record the current–voltage characteristics. The lamp spectrum is illustrated in the ESI, Fig. S6.† The stabilized illumination intensity was calibrated with a commercial lux meter (Clas Ohlson, Insjön, Sweden) before measurements. Values of illumination intensity were cross-checked with lux meters from different manufacturers. The entire active photovoltaic area of the devices was used during indoor characterization to mimic diffuse light conditions.

The PGSTAT 100 is a potentiostat, a type of electrochemical measurement instrument. It is designed to apply and measure electrical potential and current between an electrochemical cell's working and reference electrodes. The PGSTAT 100 can be used to perform various electrochemical techniques, including voltammetry and potentiometry.

Cyclic voltammetric experiments were performed using a three-and four-electrode configuration with an Autolab PGSTAT100 potentiostat (Metrohm-Autolab). iR compensation was applied for the electrochemical measurements. Homemade Ag/AgCl reference electrodes (RE) were directly immersed in the chloride-containing aqueous phase, an aqueous solution of 0.1 mM LiCl and 1 mM BTPPACl was brought in contact with the organic solution via a micropipette and formed a liquid junction for the organic reference electrode. The micropipette was prepared from a borosilicate capillary (o.d. 1.5 mm, i.d. 1.1 mm), using a micropipette puller (Sutter P-97 Flaming/Brown). The average internal diameter of the micropipette tip was estimated to be 2-3 µm. The aqueous counter electrode (CE w ) was glass coated to avoid contact of the Pt with the organic (upper) phase (all metals were obtained from Advent Research Materials). The cells used for the liquid/ liquid electrochemical measurements at the organic/water interface, had a working area in the range 0.74-0.83 cm 2 and a total solution volume of 2.5 mL. The errors presented are either standard deviations (arithmetic averages of multiple measured values) or absolute errors determined from the best fit errors.
About PubCompare
Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.
We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.
However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
