    Abstract: A dye-sensitized solar cell, an electrode of the dye-sensitized solar cell, a method of manufacturing the electrode of the dye-sensitized solar cell are disclosed. The method of manufacturing the electrode of the dye-sensitized solar cell in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention includes: forming a metal transparent electrode on one surface of a transparent polymer board, in which the metal transparent electrode has holes formed therein; forming a electron transfer layer on the metal transparent electrode; and absorbing photosensitive dye into the electron transfer layer. According to the method as set forth above, a flexible solar cell can be implemented by using a flexible electrode, and another transparent electrode layer using ITO can be omitted by using the nano-patterned metal transparent electrode. Therefore, the highly efficient dye-sensitized solar cell can be implemented by the excellent conductivity of metals and the plasmon effect.
