Abstract Cu 2 ZnSnS 4 (CZTS) is considered a solar cell material alternative to CuInGaSe 2
(CIGS); they have almost the same performance; except for power conversion efficiency …

Germanium-based perovskite solar cells stand out as a feasible substitute for conventional
solar cells due to their non-toxic and durable properties. Therefore the current work aims to …

We report on the concomitant laser ablation of a Cu 2 ZnSnS 4 target with zinc strips affixed
to its surface in order to control at will the Zn content of the CZTS films, and study its effect on …

Antimony sulfide (Sb2S3) is a promising wide‐bandgap photovoltaic material, and a
potential top‐cell candidate for next‐generation Si‐based tandem solar cells. The most …

We investigate the role of grain structures in nanoscale carrier dynamics of polycrystalline
solar cells. By using Kelvin probe force microscopy (KPFM) and near-field scanning …

In this study, CZTS samples were produced on Mo and graphene/Mo coated glass
substrates using quaternary target. The CZTS thin films deposited by RF magnetron …

Abstract Kesterite-based Cu 2 ZnSn (S x, Se 4-x)(CZTSSe) has emerged as a promising
option for photodevices such as thin film solar cells and photocathodes utilized in …

As thin-film cadmium telluride (CdTe) solar cells gain prominence, one particular challenge
is optimizing contacts and their interfaces to transfer charge without losses in efficiency …

Herein, a theoretical investigation is conducted on grain‐size inhomogeneity's impact and
grain boundaries'(GBs') electrical nature in thin‐film solar cells. Using the Matthiessen rule …

Polycrystalline coatings and materials are widely used in engineering applications.
Therefore, it is important to know their kinetics and mass transport mechanisms. The effect of …
