Low electron mobility of TiO2 semi-conductor and inferior inter-particle contact facilitate recombination reactions that leads to low performance of dye sensitized solar cells (DSSCs). To improve electron mobility at relatively low sintering temperatures, doping of germanium (Ge) nanoparticles with...
