摘要
We present the rational synthesis of colloidal copper(l) sulfide nanocrystals and demonstrate their application as an active light absorbing component in combination with US nanorods to make a solution-processed solar cell with 1.6% power conversion efficiency on both conventional glass substrates and flexible plastic substrates with stability over a 4 month testing period.
