1D ZnO@C@MoS2 nanoarrays as counter electrodes for dye-sensitized solar cells

Herein, 1D [email protected]@MoS2 nanoarrays on conducting glass were fabricated by the successive hydrothermal-dip-coating-sulfurization techniques, acting as an effective counter electrode for the reduction from triiodide to iodide for dye-sensitized solar cells. The power conversion efficiency of 3.61% has been obtained based on 1D composite counter electrodes due to the enhancement of accelerated electron transfer and electrocatalytic activity.
