Laser-deposited Fe2O3 films or dye-fixed TiO2 films were prepared for solar cells. For both the cells, a single walled carbon nanotube (SWNT) film or a Pt-loaded SWNT film, prepared by simply pasting over ITO glass, was used as a counter electrode. Stable current (I)-voltage (V) curves were found under UV-visible light irradiation using water containing KI and I2 as an electrolyte. A comparison of I-V curves was made for Pt alone and SWNT alone films used as a counter electrode. Almost similar efficiency was found by using both types of counter electrodes. However, enhanced efficiency was obtained for the Pt-loaded SWNT-film counter electrode.Keywords: TiO2; Fe2O3 film; Solar cell; SWNT.© 2009 JSR Publications.
