Gd₂O₃:Er³⁺ up-conversion luminescent powder was synthesized by precipitation-calcination method, and characterized by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscope, energy dispersive spectrometry and fluorescence spectroscopy. The luminescent powder was added to the TiO₂ photoanode of dye-sensitized solar cells to make use of up-conversion luminescent character. The results indicate that Gd₂O₃:Er³⁺ up-conversion luminescent powder with tubular morphology improves the light harvesting via a conversion luminescence process and increases absorption efficiency by light scattering, resulting in the increment of photocurrent and photovoltage. When TiO₂ is doped by 5wt% Gd₂O₃:Er³⁺, the overall light-to-electric conversion efficiency is enhanced from 5.93% to 7.55%, i.e. about 27% increase.
