Cover Story: BiSI nanorod-based films were fabricated at a low temperature of 200 °C via two-step solution method which consists of Bi2S3 formation and its conversion to BiSI. Their structure, absorption, and morphology were successfully controlled by tuning key experimental parameters, such as the Bi:S molar ratio and the number of repetitions of each step. In addition, the electronic structure was investigated and discussed for solar cell applications. Our work is expected to contribute to fabricating environment-friendly photovoltaic materials and developing related solar cells. View this paper.
