The improvement in solar cell performance was attributed to the formation of Sb 2 O 3 in Sb 2 S 3 in which the sample was immediately removed from the oven and cooled in air, resulting in the formation of Sb 2 O 3 and the presence of some Sb 2 O 3 was verified by the XRD analysis.
On the other hand, Choi et al. and Ye et al. modified the chemical bath deposited Sb 2 S 3 by Thioacetamide (TA)-based sulfurization to mitigate the sulfur vacancies and observed the suppression of the formation of Sb 2 O 3 and the observed enhanced solar cell performance was mainly attributed to the reduction of trap sites in Sb 2 S 3.
A highly stable solar cell with a PCE of 3.5% has been reported for the optimized planar solar cells based on ITO/CdS/Sb 2 S 3 /Au by growing high-quality Sb 2 S 3 thin film by the RTE method and avoiding the use of oxide ETL and common HTL to address the discoloration effect and degradation of HTL.
Over the last few years, there has been somewhat of an explosion in new solar technology, with next-generation panels featuring a variety of advanced PV cell designs and innovations that help boost efficiency, reduce degradation, and improve reliability.
The solar cell performance of a planer device fabricated with FTO/TiO 2 /Sb 2 S 3 /Au without HTM layer was reported to increase from 0.91 to 2.48% when the increase of crystalline temperature from 200 °C to 300 °C as a result of the growth of larger Sb 2 S 3 grains via Ostwald ripening and the formation of a smooth and compact Sb 2 S 3 surface.
Hence, Deng et al. reported a stable 5.4% efficient solar cell for epitaxial growth and optimized Sb 2 S 3 grain size, and the enhanced PCE was attributed to light trapping effects, improved p–n junction quality and higher built-in-potential.
