Several characterizations have been employed to reveal the nature of the modification imparted to the MWCNTs under hydrothermal processing conditions and the resulting TiO2-MWCNT conjugation through -COOH groups. Efficient charge transfer In the nanocomposite and efficient electron transport by MWCNT (significantly higher Incident-photon-to-current conversion efficiency) are suggested to be the possible reasons for the enhancement.</p>10aCarbon nanotubes10acharge transfer10aDye-sensitized solar cells10aHybrid composite10ahydrothermal1 aMuduli, Subas1 aLee, Wonjoo1 aDhas, Vivek, V.1 aMujawar, Sarfraj1 aDubey, Megha1 aVijayamohanan, K.1 aHan, Sung-Hwan1 aOgale, Satishchandra  uhttps://library.ncl.res.in/content/enhanced-conversion-efficiency-dye-sensitized-solar-cells-based-hydrothermally-synthesized-0
