An efficient-photoanode for the dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) should have several features, such as high dye uploading, favorable energy band-gaps and excellent capability in electronic-transport. Herein, TiO2 nano hexagon arrays (TNHAs) were fabricated by using an electrochemical anodization process. Then, TNHAs were attached onto the FTO glass for front-illuminated approach of the DSSCs. SnO2 is a promising wide band-gap material for DSSCs due to its high electron-mobility. To enhance the performance of DSSCs, SnO2 nanoparticles were offered into the TNHAs by using a one-step facile immersion approach in 0.25 M K2SnO3 solution for 30 min. The as-fabricated SnO2/TNHAs were utilized as the efficient-photoanodes for DSSCs. The SnO2 nano particles have a superior light harvesting capability owe to the higher upper-surface area for maximum dye uploading and the high electron-mobility. The SnO2/TNHAs based DSSC had a PCE of 6.43%, which was 1.34 fold higher than those of pure TNHAs. Furthermore, IPCE and the amount of dye adsorption were also improved.
