The initial undoped ZnO film exhibits a polycrystalline structure with a pronounced (002) orientation and low optical absorptance. However, the electrical properties of the film are characterized by high resistivity and instability, primarily attributed to its porous morphology. These limitations can be addressed by incorporating aluminum-doped zinc oxide or indium tin oxide seed layers, resulting in enhanced and more stable electrical performance. To demonstrate its applicability, this study reports the first successful integration of PECVD-grown ZnO film as a front-contact layer in silicon heterojunction solar cells. The addition of seed layers boosts the solar cell efficiency by increasing the fill factor through reduced series resistance. Despite the challenges with the initial film quality and the need to further refine the PECVD conditions to optimize the device performance, this study offers valuable insights into the current limitations and future potential of PECVD for TCO development.

Conventional bulk heterojunction OSCs are plagued by uncontrollable morphology, serious charge recombination, and insufficient exciton utilization. Layer-by-layer deposition enables the construction of quasibilayer OSCs with well-defined vertical phase separation and ordered charge-transport channels, which offers a promising route to overcome the above bottlenecks. This review first systematically elaborates the general fundamental mechanisms of exciton dissociation in OSCs, covering basic processes, charge–transfer states, and singlet–triplet interconversion dynamics, and then focuses on the regulation strategies for exciton dissociation in OSCs from four aspects: morphology engineering, energy-level alignment, electric-field/polarization effects, and spin-state regulation. Next, the synergistic effect of structural features and energy-level engineering on exciton dissociation in quasibilayer OSCs is highlighted to address current challenges in optimizing this process. Finally, future research directions for quasibilayer OSCs are proposed, including thick-film compatibility and scalable processing. This review provides a comprehensive understanding of exciton dissociation in quasibilayer OSCs and offers guidance for developing high-efficiency, stable, and industrializable OSCs.","PeriodicalId":230,"journal":{"name":"Solar RRL","volume":"10 14","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.8,"publicationDate":"2026-07-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148533831","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The results revealed that an increase in oxygen partial pressure activated dramatic variations in stoichiometry and electrical properties of Cu-doped NiO. The HTL layer prepared at 20% PO2 during the growth showed the highest conductivity with a value of 12.9 S/cm, while the 10% PO2 HTL exhibited the highest fraction of Ni3+ (0.76). Energy band alignment of HTL with perovskite layer demonstrated a minimal valence band offset of 0.13 eV for 20% PO2, which favors the efficient hole transfer between the two layers. Controlled oxygen partial pressure in HTLs reduces defect density from a peak of 3.01 × 1011 cm−3 at 10% PO2 to 1.71 × 1011 cm−3 at 20% PO2 and led to a twofold enhancement in the charge extraction rate. Finally, PSC based on the optimum HTL significantly boosts the efficiency with the power conversion efficiency reaching to 13.7% while reducing hysteresis to 4.5% from 7.60% in the controlled sample.

To address this critical challenge, this study fabricates lead iodide (PbI2) thin films using the evaporation method and systematically reveals the mechanism by which morphology regulation of the precursor films influences the crystallization quality and optoelectronic properties of perovskite films. By employing the evaporation distance of PbI2 as the core regulation strategy, we optimize the deposition state of the precursor films, enabling precise control over the micro-morphology and significantly enhancing the light absorption capability and charge transport performance of the films, which provides a clear mechanistic basis for preparing high-quality perovskite films. On this basis, combined with a two-step solution-assisted vapor deposition method, this study successfully achieves efficient and controllable preparation of large-area perovskite films.

While CdS possesses broad light absorption and a suitable band structure, its practical application is severely limited by rapid charge carrier recombination, insufficient active sites, and particle agglomeration. Integrating semiconductors to construct heterojunctions effectively mitigates these issues by providing abundant active sites and accelerating charge separation. Herein, a facile in situ solvothermal synthesis strategy was employed to construct a Cu31S16/CdS heterojunction photocatalyst. The optimized composite (0.2-Cu31S16/CdS) exhibited a remarkable H2 production rate of 5369 μmol g−1 h−1, representing 20.4 times enhancement over pure CdS. Furthermore, the heterojunction maintained robust H2 production performance without noticeable activity decay over five consecutive cycles. Photoelectrochemical measurements and density functional theory (DFT) revealed that introducing Cu31S16 generates a stable built-in electric field and induces interfacial band bending. This formed p–n heterojunction provides a strong driving force for spatial charge separation, significantly reducing charge transfer resistance, prolonging carrier lifetime, and enhancing the H2 production performance. This work provides valuable guidelines for the rational design of robust metal sulfide heterojunctions, paving the way for sustainable solar-to-H2 conversion.","PeriodicalId":230,"journal":{"name":"Solar RRL","volume":"10 13","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.8,"publicationDate":"2026-07-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148467304","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Using grazing incidence X-ray crystallography combined with nanomechanical analysis and a series of extra materials characterization techniques, the gradient distribution of damage in the perovskite layer after aging is mapped. The results showed that the light-induced degradation starts near both top and buried interfaces for all types of solar cells and spreads into the bulk, affecting perovskite crystals quality, size and micro-strain, as well as turning the nanomechanical behavior of perovskite from elastic to viscoelastic. Subsequently, the performance of the photovoltaics decreases in terms of light harvesting efficiency, quantum efficiency and charge carrier dynamics.

Interpretations of carrier lifetime measurements often report a singular bulk lifetime. However, conventional lifetime measurements such as time-resolved photoluminescence (TRPL) generally excite an area that may encompass significant recombination inhomogeneity, including thousands of grains in polycrystalline films with grain-to-grain lateral carrier lifetime variation, inhomogeneity in the growth direction, and recombination at grain boundaries. Analysis and computational modeling here indicate that short lifetime regions in thin film solar cells have an overweighted impact on device performance. Consequently, common interpretations of conventional TRPL measurements on such films may significantly overestimate the effective carrier lifetime corresponding to solar cell performance. This paper reports the carrier lifetime mapping obtained using a TRPL system with confocal microscopy to provide a two-dimensional distribution of carrier lifetimes with sub-micron spatial resolution in polycrystalline CdSeTe films used in high efficiency solar cells. This technique provides a better means to assess the underlying mechanisms contributing to both longer- and shorter-lifetime regions, and thereby insight into methods and remedies to enhance carrier lifetime and thin-film solar cell performance, both by relating process parameters to lifetime inhomogeneity and enabling correlative metrology on intact, imaged films.","PeriodicalId":230,"journal":{"name":"Solar RRL","volume":"10 13","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.8,"publicationDate":"2026-07-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148467303","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
