摘要: A thin film of rice grain- and nanofiber-shaped titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanostructures was fabricated as an effective scattering layer on the nanoparticle electrodes in dye-sensitized solar cells by electrospinning. The grain-like are found to be superior nanofibers light with a 15.7% enhancement efficiency compared 9.63% for nanofibers.
