Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
A mesoporous TiO film consisting of different size nanocrystal particles without any organic binder was prepared on a conductive indium-tin oxide (ITO)-coated polyethylene naphthalate (PEN) plastic sheet by the doctor-blade method to fabricate flexible dye-sensitized photoanodes at 120°C. It was found that the structure of the film affected the photovoltaic performance of the photoanode greatly. The mechanism of such effects was investigated both by simulation of porosity, surface area, average pore size, and electron diffusion coefficient of the mesoporous TiO film, and by impedance study for the electron transport and recombination in a dye-sensitized solar cell (DSC). The results showed that the electron transport and recombination dominated the operation of the DSC with such flexible photoanodes. The optimum photoanode was achieved, and the largest conversion efficiency obtained was 3.93%. © 2008 American Chemical Society.
