basic information
**Lecture Summary** Sulfur is an abundant element, and many compounds with metals (sulfides) occur naturally as minerals. When including diversified compounds and solid solutions that combine multiple metal elements, there exists an extremely large number of metal sulfides, many of which are attractive materials for solar cells in terms of physical properties, resource availability, and price. On the other hand, to reduce the cost of solar cells, it is necessary to lower not only material costs but also the costs of manufacturing equipment and processes, as well as energy consumption. Chemical methods, which are non-vacuum low-temperature processes, are one effective means to achieve this. After outlining sulfide semiconductor solar cells, examples of sulfide solar cell fabrication using chemical methods will be introduced. **Lecture Summary** There is great expectation for solar power generation using solar cells that directly convert solar energy into electricity. Until now, silicon crystal-based solar cells have been mainstream. In recent years, mass production and sales of compound thin-film solar cells, which can be manufactured to be about two orders of magnitude thinner than silicon crystal-based cells, have also begun. This lecture will introduce the development status of a new type of thin-film solar cell that is low in toxicity and does not use rare metals, thus significantly reducing environmental impact, in anticipation of the era of ultra-mass production of next-generation solar cells.
