Synthesis of large CZTSe nanoparticles through a two-step hot-injection method [PDF]

, 2015
Grain boundaries in Cu2ZnSn(SxSe1x)4 (CZTSSe) thin films act as a defect that reduces the mobility of the charges. Hence one way to improve the performance of these thin film solar cells is to increase the grain size in the films.

Synergistic Passivation of Bulk and Heterojunction Defects via Dual-Functioned Interlayer Treatment for High-Efficiency Sb₂(S,Se)₃ Solar Cells. [PDF]

Adv Sci (Weinh)
This work introduces a dual‐function KI treatment that simultaneously enhances Sb2(S,Se)3 absorber quality and CdS heterojunction properties. Iodide diffusion passivates bulk defects while improving crystallization and modifies the ETL's band alignment. The resulting spike‐like interface suppresses recombination, achieving a 10.06% PCE.
