Effect of selenization temperature on the properties of Sb2Se3 thin films and solar cells by two-step method
In this work, antimony selenide (Sb2Se3) thin films were prepared using electron-beam (e-beam) evaporation followed by selenization process (two-step method) for the first time. The effect of selenization tempera...
