Flexible electrode has broad market prospects due to its low cost,light weight,convenience to carry and prepare a large area cell. The different preparation methods of flexible electrode for dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSC) are reviewed. These methods involve hydrothermal method,microwave irradiation,UV irradiation,mechanical press,deposition,sputtering and low-temperature sintering,etc. The photoelectric performances of the DSSC assembled by different flexible electrodes are compared. The latest research progress and further development on the flexible electrode are introduced.
