Abstract
Electron transport in DSSCs with the TiO2 nanoparticles photoanode become more difficult by the tremendous grain boundaries and disordered pore structures. So, one-dimensional nanostructures have great attractions due to the increased carrier diffusion length by a structural property such as direct pathways for electron transport. In this study, we investigated DSSCs using ZnO nanorod arrays and ZnO nanoparticle/nanorod composite layer as a photoanode. To prevent aggregation of ZnO nanorods, ZnO nanorods were synthesized on the nano-patterned seed dots using ultra-thin porous AAO template fabricated by new method. We confirmed that ZnO naonrods were sparsely grown as the nano-patterned seed dots were used.
