▎ 摘  要

Dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) were fabricated using graphene-coated Al2O3 (GCA)-TiO2 nanocomposite electrodes. The GCA-TiO2 pastes were prepared by simply blending the GCA particles with TiO2 particles without any complex treatments. The DSSC with 1 wt.% GCA-TiO2 exhibited much better overall energy conversion efficiency, when compared to the DSSCs with TiO2 alone and with carbon nanotube-TiO2. It can be attributed to efficient electron transport through the GCA-TiO2 to the transparent conducting oxide, resulting in significantly enhanced electron lifetime.
