| Abstract: | ZnO photoanode in dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) has been successfully prepared by the electro-hydrodynamic (EHD) technique. The sandwich solar cells exhibited a short-circuit photocurrent density of 7.0 mA cm?2 and conversion efficiency of 1.65% with a quasi-solid-state electrolyte under simulated sun illumination (AM-1.5, 100 mW cm?2). The stability and the influencing factors, such as film thickness and light intensity, on solar cell performance were discussed. |
