Table 2 Photovoltaic parameters for ZnO@TiO2 NT-based DSCs as a function of the TiO2 (meso or anatase) wall thicknesses. - Mean photovoltaic parameters values and estimated errors have been obtained from data of three devices with the same configuration. A ZnO NT cell without TiO2 has been included for comparison.
