Growth and Properties of Sb-Ge-Se Thin Films: A Promising Material for Sustainable Photovoltaic Devices DevelopmentBonal, VíctorKhelifi, SamiraDjurdjić Mijin, SanjaGaliana, BeatrizSánchez, YudaniaGarcía-Pardo, MarinaArranz, AntonioRuíz-Marín, NazaretLazić, SnežanaSerna, RosaliaCaballero, RaquelChalcogenidesSb-Ge-SeSelenizationSolar cells14 pages, 13 figures, 4 tablesSb-Ge chalcogenides are known as effective phase change materials, making them ideal for optical data storage applications, detectors, and sensors. However, there have been no photovoltaic devices developed using these materials to date. In this work, Sb-Ge-Se crystalline thin films with different [Sb]/[Ge] atomic ratios are successfully grown for the first time through the selenization of co-evaporated Sb and Ge layers. The impact of the Se addition and temperature during the selenization process on the composition, structural, morphological, vibrational, and optical properties of the Sb-Ge-Se layers is investigated. The coexistence of Sb<inf>2</inf>Se<inf>3</inf> and GeSe<inf>2</inf> has been confirmed using various characterization techniques, including Grazing Incidence X-ray diffraction, Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy, X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy and Raman spectroscopy. Additionally, Scanning Transmission Electron Microscopy has revealed Ge-enrichment regions surrounding the Sb<inf>2</inf>Se<inf>3</inf> crystals. The composition of the co-evaporated film and final Ge content in the chalcogenide film govern the band gap energy, increasing from 1.41 to 1.83 eV. We present the inaugural operational SLG/Mo/Sb-Ge-Se/CdS/ZnO/ITO photovoltaic devices with a total efficiency of 1.34%. The primary factors limiting the device performance are the significant CdS diffusion into the active layer and the high defect density, as determined by Capacitance-Voltage and Drive-Level Capacitance Profiling. The devices exhibit excellent stability after 1 year of storage in ambient air. These first prototypes of Sb-Ge-Se crystalline thin films pave the way for advancement in the development of sustainable and stable photovoltaic devices.This work was supported by ASSESS (TED2021-129666B-C21 and C22) project funded by MCIN/AEI/10.13039/501100011033 and by the “European Union NextGeneration EU/PRTR”.
