ABSTRACT:
A method for manufacturing a nano-particulate electrode for Dye Solar Cells including the steps of providing an electrically conductive substrate, formation of a nanoparticulate layer on the substrate, application of dye to the nanoparticulate layer and an additional step of electrolytic treatment of the nanoparticulate layer in an electrolyte.
