Abstract
Provided are a photoelectrode including a zinc oxide hemisphere, a method of fabricating the same, and a dye-sensitized solar cell using the same. The photoelectrode includes a conductive substrate, a zinc oxide hemisphere disposed on the conductive substrate, and a porous metal oxide layer covering the zinc oxide hemisphere. Light scattering effects of photoelectrodes can be increased, and recombination losses of electrons can be minimized to improve photovoltaic properties.
