Aqueous solution processed MoS3 as an eco-friendly hole-transport layer for all-inorganic Sb2Se3 solar cells.

Aqueous solution processed MoS3 as an eco-friendly hole-transport layer for all-inorganic Sb2Se3 solar cells. Chem Commun (Camb). 2020 Nov 20;: Authors: Ma Y, Yin Y, Li G, Lian W, Zhang J, Tang R, Ju H, Chen T Abstract Here we report a solution processed environmentally friendly MoS3 hole-transport material for Sb2Se3 solar cells, where MoS3 exhibits a matched energy level relative to Sb2Se3. In the synthesis, H2S produced by the thermal decomposition of (NH4)2MoS4 is found to efficiently eliminate the antimony oxide impurity formed on the Sb2Se3 surface. Finally, the all-inorganic Sb2Se3 solar cell delivers an efficiency of 6.86% with excellent stability. PMID: 33215622 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
