A Comparative Numerical Modeling of High‐Efficient CBTS Solar Cell Using SCAPS‐1D

Nano Select, Volume 7, Issue 6, June 2026.
The highest efficiency achieved is 18.42%, 21.51%, and 21.6% for optimized CBTS/CdS/FTO, CBTS/SnS2/FTO, and CBTS/Cd0.1Zn0.9S/FTO solar cell, respectively. The results prove that low‐toxic Cd0.1Zn0.9S buffer layer provides best performance among all three buffer layers and SnS2 buffer layer also shows promising results.

The Influence of Annealing on the Sb Layer in the Synthesis of [001]‐Oriented Sb2Se3 Film for Photoelectrochemical Hydrogen Gas Generation

Advanced Functional Materials, Volume 36, Issue 21, 12 March 2026.
[001]‐oriented Sb2Se3 film with improved crystallinity and adjusted composition is achieved via a new thermal treatment approach consisting of preliminary annealing of the Sb layer before its selenization. The findings of this work demonstrate enhanced charge carriers' transportation, a stable performance, and an improvement of H2 generation from ...

Li Incorporation Induces Surface Chemical Disorder in Solution‐Processed Cu2ZnSn(S,Se)4

Advanced Materials Interfaces, Volume 13, Issue 5, 4 March 2026.
Lithium incorporation into Cu2ZnSn(S,Se)4 (CZTSSe) thin‐film semiconductors is highly beneficial for solar power conversion efficiencies, although directly visualising its impact on the absorber is difficult. Energy‐filtered photoemission electron microscopy measurements reveal lithium alloying induces surface chemical disorder of CZTSSe, highlighted ...
