Sb2S3 Solar Cells

Power generated from sustainable and environmentally benign solar cell technologies is one of the key aspects in the development of clean renewable energy. Earth-abundant and non-toxic materials with suitable bandgap and absorption coefficient for photovoltaic application have drawn considerable attention in the last few decades. Here we examine Sb2S3, an emerging thin film solar cell technology that also has exciting opportunities for Si-based tandem solar cell application. We conduct a systematic analysis of Sb2S3-based photovoltaic devices, highlighting major advancements and most prominent limitations of this technology. This study also encompasses device performance simulation, providing a roadmap for further Sb2S3 technology development.
