In terms of device operation, the transfer of electrons from the Sb₂(S,Se)₃ layer to the electron transport layer (ETL) plays a crucial role in improving the photovoltaic performance of solar cells. Until now, high-efficiency Sb₂(S,Se)₃ solar cells have typically employed cadmium sulfide (CdS) as the ETL. However, inadequate interface contact between the CdS and the Sb₂(S,Se)₃ layer often results in severe interface recombination, and the parasitic light absorption of CdS restricts the short-circuit current density (<em>J</em>_sc). Therefore, the development of high-quality CdS film along with reduction of cadmium element usage remains an import issue for the Sb₂(S,Se)₃ solar cells. Herein, the poly(acrylic acid)-modified tin oxide (PAA-SnO₂)/CdS double ETLs are introduced to improve the quality of both the CdS film and Sb₂(S,Se)₃ film, while also strengthening the interface contact between CdS and Sb₂(S,Se)₃. The power conversion efficiency of the corresponding solar cells increases from 7.45% in the control device to 8.15% in the modified device. This work provides a simple PAA-modified SnO₂-assisted CdS ETL strategy to improve the interface of CdS/Sb₂(S,Se)₃, thereby achieving efficient and stable Sb₂(S,Se)₃ solar cells.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":429,"journal":{"name":"Solar Energy Materials and Solar Cells","volume":"281 ","pages":"Article 113322"},"PeriodicalIF":6.3,"publicationDate":"2024-11-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142747975","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We employ the finite difference time domain approach for simulation. Multi-narrowband perfect absorption and ultra-wideband perfect absorption can alternate as the light source's direction changes. Four narrow-band absorption peaks developed at 987 nm, 1188 nm, 1510 nm, and 2091 nm, respectively, when the incident light struck the bottom. The corresponding absorption efficiencies were 99.69 %, 99.41 %, 98.54 %, and 98.97 %. The broadband region displays the properties of perfect absorption when incident light strikes the top. It should be noted that it is not affected by the polarization or angle of the incidence. With an average absorption efficiency of 96.02 %, the structure attains over 90 % absorption in the 3023 nm range (424–3447 nm). Second, the weighted absorption efficiency of the full spectrum is as high as 96.84 %, and the AM 1.5 solar radiation spectrum and the solar absorption spectrum are strongly coincident. Furthermore, the computation results show that the thermal radiation efficiency is greater than 95 % between 300 K and 1500 K. The electric field distribution revealed that the Fabry-Perot cavity resonance within the film, the surface plasmon resonance (SPR) on the surface of the InAs and TiO₂ regular hexagonal pattern films, the interstitial mode excitation between the films, and the excitation cavity coupling between cells of each unit were primarily responsible for the perfect absorption of broadband. The high-order resonant coupling in the FP cavity and the strong coupling between the local surface plasmon resonance and the FP cavity resonance in the metal grating's slit are the primary causes of the narrow band's perfect absorption. The suggested bidirectional metamaterial perfect absorber has significant promise for use in the disciplines of sensing, solar energy absorption, photoelectric detection, and photothermal conversion, as evidenced by its superb absorption and thermal radiation characteristics.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":429,"journal":{"name":"Solar Energy Materials and Solar Cells","volume":"281 ","pages":"Article 113330"},"PeriodicalIF":6.3,"publicationDate":"2024-11-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142722509","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Interfacial solar water evaporation technology based on photothermal processes is one of the most effective ways of utilizing solar energy. However, practical challenges such as low efficiency, complexity, and poor durability, have hindered the widespread adoption of this technology. To tackle these challenges, research has been focused on developing materials that exhibit broad-spectrum light absorption, high mechanical and thermal stability, and low thermal conductivity. Moreover, growing waste from high-performance materials such as aramid fibers and carbon fibers highlights the need for sustainable practices, such as upcycling these fibers instead of relying on new resources. In this study, we have demonstrated the upcycling of waste aramid fibers and carbon fibers into aerogels for water evaporators. The incorporation of MXene into the aerogels has significantly enhanced light absorption compared to both ANF and ANF-CF aerogels. This improvement, along with increased photothermal efficiency and hydrophilicity, led to an optimized structure with a solar-to-vapor conversion efficiency of 103.6 % and an evaporation rate of 1.63 kg m⁻² h⁻¹ under one sun.

Concentrated solar power (CSP) with thermal energy storage (TES) emerges as a viable alternative to bridge the gap between renewable energy generation and consumption.

While alternative materials, such as solid particles for sensible heat storage in solar towers exceeding 600 °C, have been proposed, the crucial aspect revolves around selecting a new alternative sustainable low-cost material for use as a TES media. This article investigates the optimization of CSP-TES systems by evaluating alternative sustainable low-cost materials sourced from several sectors such as the mining or metallurgical industry, municipal solid wastes, or demolition wastes.
