摘要：

The deposition of TiO2 particles on transparent conducting glass of fluorine doped SnO2 (FTO) film in a solution containing Ti precursors such as Ti oxyhydroxide, titanyl, and peroxo Ti complexe was performed. UV irradiation of the solution led to linking between the TiO2 particles and adhesion to the FTO film at room temperature. We applied this process for the improvement of dye-sensitized solar cell performance. The dark currents were suppressed by the deposited TiO2 all over the mesoporous TiO2 layers and FTO films. The electron life time measurements indicated a decrease in recombination reactions in the electrode-electrolyte interface.
