A quantum dot-sensitized solar cell (QDSSC) is a promising next-generation photovoltaic technology due to its clean, low cost, high efficiency, and easy fabrication. To date, various transition-metal sulfides (TMSs) have been demonstrated, yet the utilization of bimetallic sulfides has rarely been r...
