Vertically aligned TiO2 nanorod (NR) arrays have been grown on the fluorine doped tin oxide (FTO) substrates by hydrothermal methods and the structures were employed to fabricate the dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs). The charge transport properties were investigated by the current to voltage curves and the electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. It was found that DSSCs containing the as-prepared and 500 degrees C annealed TiO2 NRs exhibit different trends with the growth time (t). The DSSCs assembled with the un-sintered NR arrays showed the highest power conversion efficiency (eta) of 1.87%. When DSSCs were assembled with the sintered NR arrays, nearly 400% enhanced efficiency were obtained, and the values (eta) showed a positive correlation with t. This behavior may be attributed to the improved adhesion and electric contact between TiO2 and FTO, as well as the reduced number of recombination sites.
