We review the present state-of-the-art within back and front contacts in kesterite thin film solar cells, as well as the current challenges. At the back contact, molybdenum (Mo) is …
In this work, a detailed study of the effect of thermal treatment (hot plate) on a Mo/CZTS/CdS/i-ZnO/ITO solar cell was carried out, which promotes the diffusion of the Cd …
Earth abundant and non-toxic CZTS films were grown by one-step thermal evaporation from as prepared and calcined powders followed by a sulfurization process at 400° C. 400° C. X …
The single crystals of quaternary transition metal chalcogenide Cu2ZnSnS4 (CZTS) are grown by a closed system chemical vapor transport technique. The high purity individual …
Abstract Sulfide kesterite Cu2ZnSnS4 (CZTS) solar cells, containing earth‐abundant and environmentally benign constituents, are regarded as promising candidates for thin‐film …
