  • Abstract
    Three dimensional transparent conductive oxide-less dye-sensitized solar cells (3D-TCO-less DSCs) consisting of a flexible porous titania sheet are reported. The flexible titania sheet is composed of a dye stained porous titania layer and a mesh sheet acting as the backbone. Flexible TCO-less DSCs, tandem DSCs, TCO-less cylinder DSCs and TCO-less cubic DSCs are fabricated and their fundamental photovoltaic performances are reported.
