Abstract

The use of laser transfer techniques to produce porous nc-TiO ₂ films required for dye-sensitized solar cells was presented. Pulsed laser deposition and laser direct-write techniques were applied to deposit the dense and porous nanocrystalline TiO ₂ layers. A pulsed ultraviolet (UV) laser was used to forward transfer a suspension of TiO ₂ nanopowder onto a F-doped SnO ₂ coated glass substrate. It was found that the dye solar cells fabricated with the laser processed TiO ₂ layers on the glass had a power conversion efficiency of 3∼4.3% under an illumination of 10mW/cm.
