The influence of the crystalline orientation of the TiO2 photoanode on the photo-electrochemical characteristics was investigated to reveal the primary factors responsible for improving the photoelectric conversion efficiency of a dye-sensitized solar cell. It was observed that the photocurrent depended on the plane orientation, whereas the dependence of the photopotential on the open circuit was almost constant. The rate of the photoanodic reaction was attributed to the dye adsorption, depending on the surface energy of each oriented plane of the TiO2. The cathodic reaction on TiO2 during open circuit is likely to determine the rate of the entire electrochemical reaction.

Dye adsorption on Ti02and electron transport in Ti02film are the two critical factors in determining efficiency of the the dye sensitized solar cell (DSSC). Increasing dye adsorption which increases the light harvesting is usually achieved by using nanoporous or nanoparticle Ti02films. Electron transport is determined by the inter-particle resistance of Ti02film. Electrospinning is a viable method for forming porous structure materials with high surface area. In this study, it was found that electrospinning is able to achieve good solar cell performance due to the high electron transport caused by the pores in the Ti02film.
