Strong absorption and ultrafast localisation in NaBiS2 nanocrystals with slow charge-carrier recombination
Ternary chalcogenides are gaining interest as nontoxic, stable solar absorbers. Here, the authors investigate NaBiS2, finding cation disorder to be a critical parameter that enables its high absorption strength and unusual charge-carrier kinetics.
