Novel attempt to design solar cell based on chalcogenide perovskite delivers 13.86% efficiency

Scientists in South Africa have proposed a new chalcogenide perovskite solar cell design based on a compound known as barium zirconium sulfide. They tested different hole transport materials in the new device and found that a polymer known as P3HT achieved the best performance. A team of scientists led by the University of Fort Hare in South Africa has designed a perovskite solar cell with an absorber made of a chalcogenide perovskite material known as barium zirconium sulfide (BaZrS3). Metal chalcogenide perovskites, with their nontoxic elemental composition, are known to offer greater thermal ...
