Based on comprehensive analysis on the microstructure, crystal structure and electrochemical properties of biochars, the intrinsic causes to induce the difference of the photovoltaic properties of the biochars based DSSCs were investigated emphatically. The results indicated that the conversion efficiencies of DSSCs consisting of biochars counter electrodes derive from various leaves ranged from 1.00 to 1.85%. Among them, the palm leaf bring about the best efficiency, followed by camphor leaf, poplar leaf, maple leaf, red after-wood leaf, toona leaf, firry leaf and pine needles, and the cassia leaf with the least efficiency. The pore structure of biochars was believed as one of
