Bi2S3 is a potential solar absorber with optoelectronic properties determined through experimental techniques and theoretical calculations. The material exhibits a fundamental absorption edge and photoreflectance transition value of 1.30 eV at room temperature, with significant energy change in the fundamental gap between 20 and 300 K. Theoretical predictions show that Bi2S3 has an indirect band gap with band nesting, and experimental methods confirm the dominance of direct optical transitions.
The van der Waals material Bi2S3 is a potential solar absorber, but its optoelectronic properties are not fully explored and understood. Here, using theoretical calculations and various experimental techniques under different temperature and hydrostatic pressure conditions, the optoelectronic properties of Bi2S3 are determined. The fundamental absorption edge and photoreflectance transition value has been found to be similar to 1.30 eV at room temperature, which is the optimum value, giving a maximum solar cell power conversion efficiency according to the Shockley-Queisser limit for a single-junction solar cell. Temperature-dependent measurements reveal that the total energy change of the fundamental gap between 20 and 300 K is significant at similar to 0.16 eV, compared to conventional semiconductors. Theoretical predictions show that Bi2S3 possesses an indirect band gap with the band nesting surrounding. The combination of experimental methods such as photoreflectance, absorption, and photoluminescence clearly shows that the direct optical transition dominates above the indirect one. Therefore, we reveal Bi2S3 as a nesting-like band gap semiconductor with a strong absorption edge and excitonic emission.
