The corroboration between high-quality photoemission measurements and density of states calculations yields valuable insights into why these materials have demonstrated poor device efficiencies in the vast literature cited. The book shows how the materials’ underlying electronic structures affect their properties, and how the band positions make them unsuitable for use with established solar cell technologies. After explaining these poor efficiencies, the book offers alternative window layer materials to improve the use of these absorbers. The power of photoemission and interpretation of the data in terms of factors generally overlooked in the literature, such as the materials’ oxidation and phase impurity, is demonstrated. Representing a unique reference guide, the book will be of considerable interest and value to members of the photoemission community engaged in solar cell research, and to a wider materials science audience as well. | 出版日期 | Book 2018 | 关键词 | Thin-film Solar Cells; XPS; Band Alignments; DFT; Earth-abundant Absorbers; Sulphides for Photovoltaics; P | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-319-91665-1 | isbn_softcover | 978-3-030-06276-7 | isbn_ebook | 978-3-319-91665-1Series ISSN 2190-5053 Series E-ISSN 2190-5061 | issn_series | 2190-5053 | copyright | Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2018 |
