Synthesis and device characteristics of highly scalable antimony selenide nanowire-based phase transition memory are reported. Antimony selenide nanowires prepared using the metal-catalyst-free approach are single-crystalline and of high-purity. The nanowire memory can be repeatedly switched between high-resistance (approximately 10 Momega) and low-resistance (approximately 1 komega) states which are attributed to amorphous and crystalline states, respectively.

Semiconducting antimony-containing chalcogenides are an emerging class of materials for their applications in the thermoelectric and optoelectronic fields. A series of new polycrystalline antimony-containing chalcogenides BaPbSbSeTe ( = 0 to 4) have been prepared by heating the elements at 1073 K. The parent monoclinic selenide, BaPbSbSe, adopts the 2/ space group, as determined by a single-crystal X-ray diffraction study.

Antimony selenide (SbSe) has attracted increasing attention as a promising photovoltaic absorber due to its superior optoelectronic properties and ample application potential in thin-film solar cells. High-performance SbSe solar cell is closely tied to the quality of SbSe active layer, which requires careful design of the interfacial and bulk defects, as well as crystallinity of the thin films. Postprocessing procedures show great potential to address defect issues and improve the conductivity of solar cells.

The integration of superhydrophobicity and photothermal conversion offers transformative potential for addressing ice accretion challenges in outdoor infrastructure. However, current technologies are constrained by fluorinated chemical dependencies, complex manufacturing workflows, and limited substrate adaptability. Herein, we present a fluorochemical-free, eco-friendly, scalable coating system through a one-step spray deposition of antimony selenide (SbSe), stearic acid (STA), and poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA).

The recombination losses in the bulk absorber and interfaces limit the power conversion efficiency of antimony selenide (SbSe) solar cells. This study aims to enhance efficiency in a new cadmium-free SbSe-based solar cell by using tungsten disulfide (WS) as the buffer layer and zinc phosphide (ZnP) as the back surface field (BSF) layer, simulated in SCAPS-1D software. It is revealed that the proposal of WS as the buffer and ZnP as the BSF confirms the appropriate band alignment at the SbSe/WS and ZnP/SbSe interfaces, respectively.
