Controlled thickness of a chemical-bath-deposited CdS buffer layer for a SnS thin film solar cell with more than 3% efficiency

TL;DR: In this paper, the thickness of the buffer layer was adjusted by varying the deposition time from 15 to 25'min, which resulted in thicknesses of 30-80'nm, and the performance parameters of the thin film solar cells improved with buffer layer thickness, but later deteriorated with thicker CdS layers.
