Abstract We proposed a fabrication of nanoimprinted textures on a front glass/transparent conductive oxide interface for dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs). These textures were fabricated through polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) nanoimprint lithography on organosilsesquioxane solution. The texture structures were estimated via optical simulation. Master molds were anodic aluminum oxide templates with nano-texture (N-Tx) and micro-nano double texture (D-Tx). Meanwhile, replicate molds used a hard PDMS. Fluorine-doped tin oxide and titanium dioxide were deposited on textured glass substrates to generate electrodes for DSSCs. Unlike the DSSCs without texture, textured DSSCs realized 11.4% (N-Tx) and 10% (D-Tx) improvement in conversion efficiency.

Upconversion NaYF4:Yb3+Er3+@TiO2 are synthesized and used to compose the photoelectrode (PE) of dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs). The morphology, structure, photoluminescence characterization of the NaYF4:Yb3+, Er@TiO2 and the photoelectric performance, alternating current impedance spectroscopy of DSSCs are characterized using transmission electron microscopy, CHI660C electrochemical analyzer, 720 nm long wave pass filter, the infrared laser light, upconversion spectra. Comparing the output power of the DSSC with upconversion performance at different annealing temperatures, the DSSCs under annealing temperature (330°C) show a better photovoltaic efficiency.
