A structurally interconnected block copolymer was facilely prepared by the oligomerization of poly(oxyethylene)-segmented diamine and 4,4'-oxydiphthalic anhydride, followed by a late-stage curing to generate amide-imide cross-linked gels. The gel structure, with multiple functionalities including poly(oxyethylene) segments, amido-acid linkers, amine termini, and amide cross-linker was characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. The gel-like copolymer was used to absorb a liquid electrolyte; formation of 3D interconnected nanochannels, as could be observed by field emission scanning electronic microscopy has confirmed this absorption of the liquid electrolyte by the copolymer. This elastomeric copolymer was used as the matrix of a polymer gel electrolyte (PGE) for a dye-sensitized solar cell (DSSC), which shows extremely high photovoltaic performance (soaking for 1 h in the electrolyte). In particular, the PGE containing 76.8 wt% of the liquid electrolyte renders a power conversion efficiency of 9.48% for its DSSC, with a short-circuit photocurrent density of 19.50 mA cm(-2), an open-circuit voltage of 0.76 V, and a fill factor of 0.64. The outstanding performance of the gel-state DSSC, superior to that (8.84%) of the DSSC with the liquid electrolyte, is mainly ascribed to the suppression of the back electron transfer through the PGE. Electrochemical impedance spectra, and dark current measurements were used to substantiate the explanations of the photovoltaic parameters.
