Sb₂S₃ Thin-Film Solar Cells Fabricated from an Antimony Ethyl Xanthate Based Precursor in Air.

ABSTRACT: The rapidly expanding demand for photovoltaics (PVs) requires stable, quick, and easy to manufacture solar cells based on socioeconomically and ecologically viable earth-abundant resources. Sb₂S₃ has been a potential candidate for solar PVs and the efficiency of planar Sb₂S₃ thin-film solar cells has witnessed a reasonable rise from 5.77% in 2014 to 8% in 2022. Herein, the aim is to bring new insight into Sb₂S₃ solar cell research by investigating how the bulk and surface properties of the Sb₂S₃ absorber and the current-voltage and deep-level defect characteristics of solar cells based on these films are affected by the ultrasonic spray pyrolysis deposition temperature and the molar ratio of thiourea to
