Shape-tailored TiO2nanocrystals with synergic peculiarities as building blocks for highly efficient multi-stack dye solar cells

Abstract

An engineered photoelectrode for dye solar cells has been developed through the combination of three mesoporous stacks made of shape-tailored TiO2 anatase nanocrystals, which have been ad hoc synthesized by suitable colloidal routes. Optimization of light harvesting and charge collection efficiency allowed us to obtain a high power conversion efficiency of 10.26%.
