Embodiment Construction

[0016] 1. Preparation of TiO on FTO glass substrate 2 Nanowire Array Films.

[0017] Preparation of TiO on FTO glass substrate by low temperature and low energy consumption hydrothermal synthesis technology 2 Nanowire Array Films. Under the condition of keeping the total volume at 40mL, concentrate hydrochloric acid and deionized water according to HCl:H 2 O=15:25, 20:20, 25:15, 26.7:13.3 volume ratio mixed, stirred with a magnetic stirrer for 5 minutes, then 0.4-0.8mL of butyl titanate was added dropwise, and stirred for 7 minutes. Put the prepared solution into a 100mL autoclave with a polytetrafluoroethylene liner, and place the cleaned FTO glass substrate with a width of 1.5cm and a length of 3.5-4cm in the reaction chamber with the conductive film facing downward. In the kettle, the angle between the glass and the wall is kept in the range of 10-45°, while keeping the FTO glass about 0.5 cm above the solution for connecting the test electrodes. Then seal the kettle, p...

Abstract

The invention discloses a TiO2 nanowire array film light anode and a preparation method thereof. The structure of the light anode comprises common glass, an F-doped SnO2 transparent conducting film and a TiO2 nanowire array film. The preparation method comprises the following step of directly synthesizing the TiO2 nanowire array film which is used as a light anode of a dye-sensitization solar battery on a FTO (Tin Oxide) glass substrate by using the mixture of concentrated hydrochloric acid, deionized water and tetrabutyl titanate as a reaction precursor in a hydrothermal synthesis technique. The method controls the diameters and densities of nanowires by changing the ratio of the concentrated hydrochloric acid to the deionized water in the reaction precursor and the concentration of the tetrabutyl titanate, controls the lengths of the TiO2 nanowires by changing reaction time, and ensures that the electrode has higher light capturing efficiency, improves the transporting capacity of photon-generated carriers and reduces the compounding process of the photon-generated carrier by utilizing higher light utilization rate and favorable electron shifting properties of the TiO2 nanowires, thereby improving the photoelectric conversion efficiency of the dye-sensitization solar battery.

Description
