photovoltaic material

As a new member of photovoltaic family, antimony trisulfide (Sb2S3) has the satisfactory bandgap of 1.7 eV, profiting the fabrication of the leading absorber layer of tandem solar cells. Because of an unique quasi-one-dimensional framework, it shows benefits of much less dangling bonds. Based upon these advantages, the openings defects upon the surface triggering the recombination of carriers could be minimized dramatically, which assists to resolve the photovoltaic problems in solar cells.
