Hydrothermal growth of high crystallinity Nb 3 O 7 (OH) single crystal nanorod film onto FTO substrate is directly used as the photoanode for DSSCs without calcination. The resultant DSSCs possess an impressive overall efficiency of 6.77%, the highest among all reported DSSCs assembled by niobium oxide‐based photoanodes.
