A generic approach to design optoelectronic [GRAPHICS] devices using renewable biopolymers is demonstrated. As a proof of principle, a biopolymer/CuInS2 nanocomponent-based solar cell has been assembled by using a cellulose derivative with a reasonable life cycle performance, namely, trimethylsilyl cellulose (TMSC). The solar cells are manufactured using a mixture of copper and indium xanthates as precursors, which decompose and form CIS nanoparticles within the biopolymer matrix during a thermal treatment, which was investigated by in situ combined grazing incidence small and wide-angle X-ray scattering experiments. The growth of the nanopartides is thereby controlled by the TMSC matrix. The nanocrystals exhibit an average diameter of approximately 4 nm. Using this composite, it was possible to fabricate solar cells, generating current in a wide range of the solar spectrum and exhibiting power conversion efficiencies of ca. 1%.
