Chalcogenide Perovskites For Photovoltaic Applications: Properties, Advantages, Solar Cell And Optoelectronic Applications
Öz
Renewable energy sources are of critical importance for sustainable development worldwide. For the well-being of future generations, it is essential to produce electrical energy in an environmentally friendly and long-term sustainable manner. Among these resources, solar energy holds the most significant potential. Photovoltaic (PV) technology has progressed over decades due to substantial efforts, with current research trends focusing on performance metrics such as high efficiency, stability, and cost-effectiveness. Perovskite solar cells (PSCs) are a prominent research area, not only because of their high efficiency but also due to their ability to be easily produced through low-cost solution processes. Additionally, chalcogenide-based perovskites are emerging as promising alternatives with enhanced stability, lower toxicity, and the potential for cost-effective, scalable production. This study provides a detailed review of advancements in chalcogenide perovskite research, emphasizing the material’s tunable band gaps, superior charge transport properties, and resilience to environmental conditions such as humidity, oxygen, and UV light. Chalcogenide perovskites (CPs), exhibiting graphene-like properties, are considered strong candidates for next-generation PV technologies due to their high charge mobility and flexibility. Various synthesis and optimization strategies such as advanced synthesis techniques, precise doping methods, and innovative interface and additive engineering are discussed to enhance PV performance. In this context, the review bridges fundamental research with practical applications, delineating strategic directions for emerging chalcogenide-based PSCs and optoelectronic devices to meet global energy demands sustainably
