title: One-step growth of well-aligned TiO2 nanorod arrays for flexible dye-sensitized solar cells.
abstract: We present here the feasibility of growing well-aligned TiO2 nanorod arrays by a dc reactive magnetron sputtering strategy for flexible dye-sensitized solar cells. These flexible devices yield an efficiency of 5.3% in comparison to 1.2% from traditional TiO2 nanoparticles by a low-temperature technique.
