Abstract

This work presents the results of investigating the photovoltaic characteristics of Sb2(SxSe1−x)3 thin film solar cells manufactured on glass substrates with molybdenum coating using the chemical molecular beam deposition method. Illuminated IV and spectral response measurements on Sb₂(S_xSe_1−x)₃ alloy films show that the device with S/(S + Se) = 0.6 delivers the best performance, reaching 6.47% power-conversion efficiency with V_OC = 523 mV, J_SC = 27.2 mA cm⁻² , and a fill factor of 46.71%.
