TiS₂ nanotubular structures were synthesized by a high temperature H₂S treatment of anodized TiO₂ nanotube layers, and their electrochemical activity for a use as counter electrodes in dye sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) was evaluated. During conversion to TiS₂ compositional, morphological and structural transformations were monitored. The fully converted TiS₂ nanostructures show a high electrocatalytic activity for the I⁻/I₃⁻ oxidation comparable to a nanoparticular platinum layer. For a simplified model a DSSC solar cell efficiency of 6.1% was obtained using the TiS₂ nanotube layer as counter electrode, which is very close to values obtained for a Pt reference (6.2%).
