DFT Modeling and Impedance Spectroscopy Analysis of a High Performance Zirconia‐Based Solar Cell

Nano Select, Volume 7, Issue 3, March 2026.
p‐SnS/n‐CdS heterojunction solar cells with Al‐ZnO/i‐ZnO window layers simulated using SCAPS‐1D and impedance spectroscopy enabled tracking of solar cell parameters. The optimal performance (η = 22.76%, Voc = 0.77 V) was achieved with a 5 µm SnS absorber at Rs = 1Ω.cm−2 and Rsh = 10 kΩ.cm−2.

CdCl2 Treatment for Cu2ZnSn(S,Se)4: A Method to Enhance the Solar Cell Performance

Progress in Photovoltaics: Research and Applications, Volume 34, Issue 3, Page 271-285, March 2026.
We present, for the first time, two alternative CdCl2 treatments applied to solution‐processed kesterite (CZTSSe) absorbers: pre‐selenization and post‐selenization. Carrier concentration is consistently increased by either route, whereas the band gap decreases with pre‐selenization but remains nearly constant with post‐selenization; enhanced defect ...

Unlocking Klockmannite: Formation of Colloidal Quasi‐2D CuSe Nanocrystals and Photo‐Physical Properties Arising From Crystal Anisotropy

Small, Volume 22, Issue 17, 20 March 2026.
Thiol‐free hot injection approach yields quasi‐2D klockmannite CuSe nanocrystals, specifically nanosheets and uniform triangular nanoplatelets. This study reconsiders the klockmannite from the point of view of crystal anisotropy and demonstrates its effect on plasmonic response in the near‐infrared spectral region with the theoretical emergence of ...

Morning–Afternoon Asymmetry in Correlations Between the Equatorial Electrojet and Sq Westward Currents on Polar‐Side of the Focus

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 3, 16 February 2026.
Abstract Equatorial electrojet (EEJ) and solar quiet (Sq) currents with one vortex each in either hemisphere are key components of the ionospheric dynamo currents, driving geomagnetic diurnal variations observed at Earth's surface. However, the physical coupling between EEJ and Sq westward currents on the polar side of the vortex focus remains poorly ...

Engineering of Double Absorber Organic‐Perovskite Solar Cells for >34% Efficiency with V2O5 as Back Surface Field Layer

Advanced Photonics Research, Volume 7, Issue 2, February 2026.
This study investigates high‐efficiency double perovskite active layer (DPAL) structures using MAPbI3 and MASnI3 to surpass the Shockley‐Queisser limit in single‐junction perovskite solar cells. SCAPS‐1D simulations show that the V2O5‐assisted DPAL device achieves 34.14% power conversion efficiency with improved JSC, VOC, and FF.

Molecular Cluster‐Controlled Quasi‐Epitaxial CZTSSe/CdS Heterojunction Enables 12.3% Efficiency of Flexible Solar Cells

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 9, 13 February 2026.
By controlling the synthesis of CdS molecular clusters, a quasi‐epitaxial heterojunction is directly constructed during chemical bath deposition, enabling flexible kesterite solar cells to achieve an efficiency of 12.3%. Abstract Flexible Cu2ZnSn(S,Se)4 (CZTSSe) solar cells have garnered significant attention in photovoltaics.

Numerical Analysis of AgInSe2‐Based Thin‐Film Solar Cells Towards High Efficiency

Nano Select, Volume 7, Issue 2, February 2026.
In this work, SCAPS‐1D is used to numerically explore AgInSe2‐based thin‐film solar cells. Using CuS, WSe2, and AlSb as back surface field (BSF) layers with a CdS window improves carrier separation and built‐in potential. AgInSe2's promise for high‐performance, stable, and environmentally friendly solar applications is demonstrated by the optimised CdS/
