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.

TiO2nanotube arrays were fabricated by anodic oxidation. It was studied that the influences of the parameters for the preparation of TiO2nanotube arrays on the micrograph of the material, such as anodizing potential, annealing temperature. Then it is used in the dye sensitized solar cell (DSSC).The microstructures and morphologies of the TiO2nanotubes were investigated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and x-ray diffraction (XRD). The results show that TiO2 nanotubes arrays were fabricated when anodizing voltage is 20V. The photoelectric conversion efficiencySubscript textof DSSC made by this structure is 1.53%, the open voltage is 0.734V, short-circuit current is 4.52mA, fill factor is 0.460.
