Recently, Professor Zhu Chengjun’s team from the School of Physical Science and Technology and the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region Key Laboratory of Semiconductor Photovoltaic Technology and Energy Materials at Inner Mongolia University achieved a significant breakthrough in the research of kesterite CZTSSe (Cu₂ZnSn(S,Se)₄) thin-film solar cells. Their study was published in the internationally renowned journal Advanced Functional Materials (SCI Q1 Top, Nature Index journal, Impact Factor: 19).

The paper, titled
“Defect-Competitive Equilibrium Driven 13.83% Efficiency Breakthrough in DMF-Based CZTSSe Solar Cells”,
is available at: https://doi.org/10.1002/adfm.202511600.
