Kesterite Cu2ZnSn(S,Se)4 (CZTSSe) with earth‐abundant and environmental‐benign constituents has been regarded as a promising solar energy harvesting material for green and cost‐effective photovoltaic ...applications. The record efficiency of CZTSSe solar cells has recently been refreshed twice after years‐long stagnation, keeping it in the spotlight. Nevertheless, the champion efficiency of 13.6% is still far behind its counterpart Cu(In,Ga)Se2 (CIGS) (23.35%) despite being endowed with a similar electronic structure and nearly‐identical device architecture. In fact, CZTSSe solar cells are more susceptible to non‐radiative recombination at bulk and interfaces, which must be improved for further efficiency advancement. In this review, the state‐of‐art strategies to enhance the power conversion efficiency of CZTSSe solar cells are summarized and discussed, with focus given to three critical device regions i) kesterite absorber, ii) buffer/kesterite interface, and iii) kesterite/back contact interface. With the further elucidation of the latest progress and disclosure of fundamental mechanisms, novel insights toward high‐efficiency kesterite solar cells are proposed.
State‐of‐art strategies addressing the dominant recombination in kesterite Cu2ZnSn(S,Se)4 solar cells are reviewed. Attention is focused on the kesterite absorber, front p‐n heterojunction, and kesterite/back contact interface, as they primarily limit the performance of kesterite devices and can be improved simultaneously. By systematically scrutinizing these highly compatible measures, promising research directions are proposed to stimulate further progress and strategy integration.

Solar energy is one of the most abundant renewable energy sources. For efficient utilization of solar energy, photovoltaic technology is regarded as the most important source. However, due to the ...intermittent and unstable characteristics of solar radiation, photoelectric conversion (PC) devices fail to meet the requirements of continuous power output. With the development of rechargeable electric energy storage systems (ESSs) (e.g., supercapacitors and batteries), the integration of a PC device and a rechargeable ESS has become a promising approach to solving this problem. The so‐called integrated photorechargeable ESSs which can directly store sunlight generated electricity in daylight and reversibly release it at night time, has a huge potential for future applications. This review summarizes the development of several types of mainstream integrated photorechargeable ESSs and introduces different working mechanisms for each photorechargeable ESS in detail. Several general perspectives on challenges and future development in the field are also provided.
This review summarizes the development of several types of mainstream integrated photorechargeable energy storage systems (ESSs) and introduces different working mechanisms for each photorechargeable ESS in detail. Moreover, matching of parameters between photoelectric conversion and ESS is discussed. Finally, several perspectives on the future development of photorechargeable ESSs are listed.

Lead halide perovskite solar cells (PSCs) have been rapidly developed in the past decade. Owing to its excellent power conversion efficiency with robust and low-cost fabrication, perovskite quickly ...becomes one of the most promising candidates for the next-generation photovoltaic technology. With the development of PSCs, the interface engineering has witnessed its increasingly critical role in maximizing the device performance as well as the long-term stability, because the interfaces in PSCs are closely correlated with the defect management, carrier dynamics and surface passivation. This review focuses on interfacial modification between the perovskite active layer and the charge transport layer, as well as the recent advances on high-efficiency and stable PSCs driven by interface engineering strategies. The contributing roles of interface engineering in terms of defect passivation, inhibiting ion migration, optimization of energy band alignment and morphological control are discussed. Finally, based on the latest progress and advances, strategies and opportunities for the future research on interface engineering for PSCs are proposed to promote the development of perovskite photovoltaic technology.
