An efficient 3D dye-sensitized photovoltaic microwire has been developed using thermally stable and highly conductive titanium microwires and carbon nanotube yarns (CNYs). Interaligned, ultrastrong, and flexible CNYs with excellent mechanical integrity and electrocatalytic property were successfully used as counter electrodes (CEs). The TiO 2 nanophase coated Ti-microwire acts as the working electrode (WE). The CEs were twisted around the WE to collect and transmit the photogenerated electrons from the outer circuit. The interface in between photoactive TiO 2 film and 3D conductive support has been optimized. The optimized 3D WPVC shows a 0.583% photon to energy conversion efficiency under an irradiation of AM 1.5 (100 mW cm À2 ). Cells with various lengths were observed to attain a fill factor (FF) above 0.8. This work tested WPVCs under different working environments to assess their engineering potential.

“…Due to the highly aligned and porous structure, ACNTs can be incorporated with a number of polymers to prepare composite materials while preserving alignment structure. The resulting composites exhibit significantly enhanced physical properties than traditional randomly dispersed CNTs [20][21][22][23][24][25]. In addition, the synergetic interaction between ACNTs and sensitive polymers can create new responsive behaviors.…”
