Fabrication and characterization of coil type transparent conductive oxide-less cylindrical dye-sensitized solar cells
Abstract
Flexible metal wires were used to fabricate transparent conductive oxide (TCO)-less cylindrical dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) with a very easy and fast fabrication process. The nature of the wire and interfacial contact between the metal wire and nanoporous TiO2 layer affected the charge transport giving the photoconversion efficiency of 3.88%.
