Toward High-Efficiency Solution-Processed Planar Heterojunction Sb₂S₃ Solar Cells.

ABSTRACT: Low-cost hybrid solar cells have made tremendous steps forward during the past decade owing to the implementation of extremely thin inorganic coatings as absorber layers, typically in combination with organic hole transporters. Using only extremely thin films of these absorbers reduces the requirement of single crystalline high-quality materials and paves the way for low-cost solution processing compatible with roll-to-roll fabrication processes. To date, the most efficient absorber material, except for the recently introduced organic-inorganic lead halide perovskites, has been Sb₂S₃, which can be implemented in hybrid photovoltaics using a simple chemical bath deposition. Current high-efficiency Sb₂S₃ devices utilize absorber coatings on nanostr
