Effect of surface roughness of TiO2 films on short-circuit current density of photoelectrochemical cell of ITO/TiO2/ PVC-LiClO4/graphite

This paper reports the effect of surface topography of titanium dioxide films on short-circuit current density of photoelectrochemical solar cell of ITO/TiO2/PVC-LiCLO4/graphite. The films were deposited onto ITO-covered glass substrate by screen-printing technique. The films were tempered at 300�C,...
