The photoelectric conversion efficiency of TiO2-NaYF4：Er^3＋/Yb^3＋ C3N4 composite cell can result an efficiency of 7.37%, which is higher than those of pure TiO2 cell and TiO2-C3N4 composite cell. The enhancement of the efficiency can be attributed to the synergetic effect of NaYF4：Er^3＋/Yb^3＋ and C3N4. Elec- trochemical impedance spectroscopy analysis revealed that the interfacial resistance of the TiO2-dyelI3^-/I^- electrolyte interface of TiO2-NaYF4：Er^3＋/Yb^3＋-C3N4 composites cell was much smaller than that of pure TiO2 cell. In addition, the TiO2-NaYF4：Er^3＋/Yb^3＋-C3N4 composite cell had longer electron recombination time and shorter electron transport time than that of pure TiO2 cell.展开更多
