Solution-processed Sb2S3 thin films and solar cell devices have recently gained popularity due to their easy procedure and outstanding final device performance. Nevertheless; although the substrate has a significant influence on the following functional films; the effect of the substrate in the Sb-based solar cells appears to have not been adequately examined. In this study; we performed an interesting thioacetamide (TA)-assisted surface treatment strategy on the electron transport layer (ETL) to achieve high-quality development of Sb2S3 thin films and based solar devices. The surface treatment of ETLs resulted in a uniform surface; Zn(OH)2 impurity reduction; and excellent wettability. The above enhanced the growth of Sb2S3 thin films with features like extremely large crystal sizes (∼8 um); more homogeneous and dense film morphology; preferred crystal orientation; reduced oxygen content; and fewer defects; which benefits carrier transport. Finally; a device structure constructed of FTO/TiO2/Zn(O; S)/Sb2S3/Spiro/Au was created; resulting in an almost 30 % increase in efficiency; from 4.05 % to 5.21 %. The proposed approach not only gives new insights into generating higher-quality Sb2S3 thin films and devices; but it also presents new concepts and methods for future high-quality sulfide thin film preparation. © 2024 Elsevier B.V;
