摘要
A recent accomplishment in the preparation of a highly efficient thin film solar cell is reported. This superstrate cell is composed of FTO/TiO2/In2S3/Cu2ZnSnS4/graphite. A maximum conversion efficiency of 3.5% has been achieved for the first time using this configuration and materials. The device includes low cost methods and non-toxic components. Details of the experimental procedures are provided and the device characterization data are presented and analyzed. Left: Current-voltage response of the best cell FTO/TiO2/In2S3/Cu2ZnSnS4/graphite in the dark (dotted line) and under simulated solar irradiation (solid line). Right: Cross-sectional view of the cell. Inset: Profilometric scan of the device.
