Abstract

Metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) have been used in the area of photovoltaic devices via a novel approach proposed here for the first time. Hierarchical ZnO parallelepipeds were prepared from a MOF precursor, which could then act as an effective light scattering layer in dye-sensitized solar cells, leading to significantly improved cell performance.
