摘要/Abstract

摘要：

Nanowire-array nanotube-cluster bilayer TiO₂ films, consisting of nanowire-array at the bottom layer and nanotube-cluster at the top layer were prepared via a two-step hydrothermal method. One step was a growth process and the other was an etching process. Etching process was used to acquire nanowire-array with a small diameter of 20-25 nm of the nanowire and nanotube-cluster. The bilayer nanostructured films were then modified with TiCl₄. Villous TiO₂ attached to both the inside and outside walls of the nanotube cluster was obtained only by changing the traditional concentration of TiCl₄-treatment to 0.2 mol/L. The novel bilayer photoanode finally revealed a higher efficiency of 5.25% when used in dye-sensitized solar cells(DSSCs).
