Progress in Photovoltaics: Research and Applications, EarlyView.Amorphous SnO2 films with low resistivity (~1.2 × 10−3 Ωcm) were realized by low‐temperature magnetron sputtering through control of O2 flow ratio, substrate temperature, and H incorporation. Si heterojunction solar cells incorporating these films achieved a conversion efficiency of 21.1%, approaching that of cells based on MS‐ITO and RPD‐SnO2 ...

Responsive Materials, EarlyView.Environmental pollution and water scarcity demand innovative purification methods. This study presents a sol‐gel approach to fabricate mixed silica–titania thin films joining photocatalytic activity with selective sorption capability. The films exhibit higher surface area, enhanced degradation of cationic and improved performance over bare titania ...
