Transferable and Flexible Nanorod-Assembled TiO2 Cloths for Dye-Sensitized Solar Cells, Photodetectors, and Photocatalysts
Abstract
Flexible and transferable TiO(2) nanorods cloths (TNRCs) were synthesized from a fast and catalyst-free microwave heating route by using carbon cloth as an efficiently sacrificial template. The as-synthesized TNRCs were assembled by numerous aligned TiO(2) nanorods with diameters of about 100 nm. The good transferability and flexibility make it possible to be transferred to any substrate for further device applications. As an example, we transferred the TNRCs to a FTO substrate to make dye-sensitized solar cells, which exhibited an improved efficiency of around 2.21% assisted by TiCl(4) treatment. The transferable TNRCs were also configured as high-performance photodetectors. Illuminated by UV light with a wavelength of 365 nm, the current was found significantly enhanced, and an I(UV)/I(dark) of about 60, a rise time of nearly 1.4 s, and a decay time of 6.1 s were obtained. Moreover, they were also configured as flexible and recyclable photocatalysts with good photocatalytic performance for the degradation of methylene blue solution under UV light irradiation.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
