Tin monosulfide (SnS) is emerging as a promising absorber material for the development of low-cost, solution-processable solar cells. Herein, we present a straightforward, solution-based route for the preparation of tin monosulfide (SnS) films employing a green solvent, namely, tetrahydrofuran (THF). We show that the surface coverage and the morphology of the SnS films can be tuned by modification of the precursor solution composition and film deposition conditions. Furthermore, we explore the effect of a PEDOT:PSS interlayer and fabricate solar cells based on the following architecture: FTO/planar-TiO2/mesoporous-TiO2/SnS/P3HT/PEDOT:PSS/Ag. Devices based on this architecture are shown to exhibit power conversion efficiencies (PCEs) of 3.0%, thus demonstrating the potential of our method for the development of low-cost and environmentally friendly solar cells.
