A development in solar cell effectiveness
A research group led by Prof. Chen Tao and also Prof. Zhu Changfei, as well as their partner Prof. Hao Xiaojing at UNSW, developed a hydrothermal deposition method for the synthesis of antimony selenosulfide for solar cell applications. With this absorber material, the solar cell breaks the 10% benchmark efficiency barrier. This outcome has been released in Nature Energy qualified "Hydrothermal deposition of antimony selenosulfide slim movies allows solar cells with 10% performance."
