Abstract
Herein, we present a facile solution-based route towards nanostructured, hybrid absorber layers based on tin mono-sulfide (SnS), an emerging, non-toxic absorber material for low-cost and large-scale PV applications. Charge photogeneration properties in the hybrid system are studied using transient absorption spectroscopy and fabricated solar cells show efficient photocurrent generation over a broad spectral range.
Highlights
We present a facile solution-based route towards nanostructured, hybrid absorber layers based on tin mono-sulfide (SnS), an emerging, non-toxic absorber material for low-cost and largescale PV applications
The most prominent example within this class of materials is copper zinc tin sulfide (CZTS) to which much research effort was directed and remarkable progress was made in recent years.[1,2]
It was found that upon addition of the SnS nanoparticles the device performance improved compared to a pristine polymer solar cell, the power conversion efficiency (PCE) remained under 0.1%
