Title: | Large-diameter titanium dioxide nanotube arrays as a scattering layer for high-efficiency dye-sensitized solar cell | Authors: | Liu, XL Guo, M Cao, JJ Lin, J Tsang, YH Chen, XF Huang, HT |
Issue Date: | 2014 | Source: | Nanoscale research letters, 2014, v. 9, 362, p. 1-5 | Abstract: | Large-sized titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanotube arrays with an outer diameter of approximately 500 nm have been successfully synthesized by potentiostatic anodization at 180 V in a used electrolyte with the addition of 1.5 M lactic acid. It is found that the synthesized large-diameter TiO2 nanotube array shows a superior light scattering ability, which can be used as a light scattering layer to significantly enhance the efficiency of TiO2 nanoparticle-based dye-sensitized solar cells from 5.18% to 6.15%. The remarkable light scattering ability makes the large-diameter TiO2 nanotube array a promising candidate for light management in dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs). | Keywords: | Large-diameter titanium dioxide nanotubes Scattering layer Dye-sensitized solar cells Electrochemical reactions |
