USTC makes development in solar cell performance
A study team led by Prof. CHEN Tao and also Prof. ZHU Changfei, and also their partner Prof. HAO Xiaojing at UNSW, created a hydrothermal deposition approach for the synthesis of antimony selenosulfide for solar cell applications. With this absorber material, the solar cell break the 10% benchmark performance obstacle. This outcome has actually been released in Nature Energy entitled "Hydrothermal deposition of antimony selenosulfide thin films enables solar cells with 10% performance".
