Abstract:
This invention discloses a solution-based synthesis of cesium tin tri-iodide (CsSnI3) film. More specifically, the invention is directed to a solution-based drop-coating synthesis of cesium tin tri-iodide (CsSnI3) films. CsSnI3 films are ideally suited for a wide range of applications such as light emitting and photovoltaic devices.
Abstract:
Ternary and quaternary Chalcopyrite CuInxGa1-xSySe2-y (CIGS, where 0≦x and y≦1) nanoparticles were synthesized from molecular single source precursors (SSPs) by a one-pot reaction in a high boiling solvent using salt(s) (i.e. NaCl as by-product) as heat transfer agent via conventional convective heating method. The nanoparticles sizes were 1.8 nm to 5.2 nm as reaction temperatures were varied from 150° C. to 190° C. with very high-yield. Tunable nanoparticle size is achieved through manipulation of reaction temperature, reaction time, and precursor concentrations. In addition, the method developed in this study was scalable to achieve ultra-large quantities production of tetragonal and quaternary Chalcopyrite CIGS nanoparticles.

Abstract:
This invention discloses a solution-based synthesis of cesium tin tri-iodide (CsSnI3) film. More specifically, the invention is directed to a solution-based spray-coating synthesis of cesium tin tri-iodide (CsSnI3) thin films. This invention is also directed to effective and inexpensive methods to synthesize the thin CsSnI3 films on large-area substrates such as glass, ceramics, glass, ceramic, silicon, and metal foils. CsSnI3 films are ideally suited for a wide range of applications such as light emitting and photovoltaic devices.
