研究目的
Investigating the role of water additive in enhancing the solution processing of alloy-Sb2(S1-xSex)3 based solar cells to improve film quality and device efficiency.
研究成果
The addition of a small amount of water (1%) to the precursor solution significantly improves the crystallinity, grain size, and reduces defect density in Sb2(S1-xSex)3 films, leading to enhanced solar cell performance with a certified efficiency of 7.42%. This study demonstrates a practical strategy for optimizing the optoelectronic properties of Sb2(S,Se)3 films through solvent engineering.
研究不足
The study is limited to the effect of water additive in the precursor solution on the film quality and device performance. The scalability and long-term stability of the devices were not addressed.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection:
A mixture of DMF and DMSO was used to dissolve SbCl3, selenourea, and thiourea to form a homogenous solution. Water was added in varying concentrations to study its effect on film formation.
2:Sample Selection and Data Sources:
Sb2(S1-xSex)3 films were fabricated with water additive concentrations of 0%, 0.5%, 1%, and 2.5%.
3:5%, 1%, and 5%. List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
3. List of Experimental Equipment and Materials: Antimony trichloride, selenourea, thiourea, N,N-dimethylformamide, dimethyl sulfoxide, spin-coater, hotplate, UV-vis absorption spectrometer, XRD, SEM, AFM, DLTS system.
4:Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
Precursor solutions were spin-coated on substrates, annealed, and characterized for structural, morphological, and optoelectronic properties.
5:Data Analysis Methods:
XRD for crystallinity, SEM and AFM for morphology, UV-vis for optical properties, DLTS for defect analysis.
