Selective preferred orientation for high-performance antimony selenide thin-film solar cells via substrate surface modulation

Jing Zhou et al.

Summary: Antimony selenide (Sb2Se3) films with different preferred orientations were investigated for their impact on photovoltaic device performance. It was found that the preferred orientation of Sb2Se3 films changed from (hk0) to (hk1) and finally to (002) as the substrate surface temperature increased and surface bonding energy decreased. The performance of Sb2Se3 solar cells varied with different preferred orientations, with (hk0)-oriented devices exhibiting poor performance, (hk1)-oriented devices achieving improved carrier transport efficiency and PCE of 2-3%, and (002)-oriented devices achieving even higher PCE above 3.5%, with a maximum of 4.79% at (002) texture coefficient of 3.24.

Low-temperature and high-rate sodium metal batteries enabled by electrolyte chemistry

Jing Zhou et al.

Summary: High-rate low-temperature sodium metal batteries (LT SMBs) were achieved through modulating electrolyte chemistry. The introduction of a weak Na+ solvating co-solvent and the formation of an anion-derived NaF-rich solid-electrolyte interphase (SEI) film effectively reduced the kinetic barrier for Na+ desolvation and suppressed dendrite growth on the sodium electrode. This method enables stable cycling and high current density of sodium metal batteries under extreme low-temperature conditions.
