This architecture offers a high roughness factor, significant fight scattering, and up to several orders of magnitude faster electron transport to reach a near-record-breaking conversion efficiency of 4.9%.hybrid materialsphotovoltaic devicessolar cellstitanium dioxidenanowiresElectron-DiffusionPhotocurrent SpectroscopyConversion EfficiencySpiro-OmetadPerformanceRecombinationTransportCoefficientImpedanceEnhanceHigh-Efficiency Solid-State Dye-Sensitized Solar Cells: Fast Charge Extraction through Self-Assembled 3D Fibrous Network of Crystalline TiO2 Nanowirestext::journal::journal article::research article
