摘要：
One dimensional hierarchical BaWO4:Eu3+ nanowires have been prepared via a hydrothermal method for the first time. The obtained BaWO4:Eu3+ nanowires are not only a promising down-conversion luminescence material, but also can be used to improve the efficiency of dye sensitized solar cells, resulting an efficiency of 7.66%, which is a noticeable enhancement of 15% compared to the cell without BaWO4:Eu3+ nanowires. We suggest that the enhancement of the efficiencies of the TiO2-BaWO4:Eu3+ composite cells was mainly related to the light scattering of BaWO4:Eu3+.
