Enhanced Electrical Conductivity of Sb2S3 Thin Film via C60 Modification and Improvement in Solar Cell Efficiency

摘要

Sb2S3 has attracted great research interest very recently as a promising absorber material for photoelectric and photovoltaic devices because of its unique optical and electrical properties and single, stable phase. However, the intrinsic high resistivity property of Sb2S3 material is one of the major factors restricting the further improvement of its application. In this work, the C60 modification of Sb2S3 thin films is investigated. The conductivity of Sb2S3 thin films increases from 4.71 × 10⁻⁹ S cm⁻¹ for unmodified condition to 2.86 × 10⁻⁸ S cm⁻¹ for modified thin films. Thin‐film solar cells in the configuration of glass/(SnO2:F) FTO/TiO2/Sb2S3(C60)/Spiro‐OMeTAD/Au are fabricated, and the conversion efficiency is increased from 1.10% to 1.74%.
