Preparation and evaluation of Cu2ZnSnS4 thin films by sulfurization of E-B evaporated precursors
By sulfurization of E-B evaporated precursors, CZTS(Cu2ZnSnS4) films could be prepared successfully. This semiconductor does not consist of any rare-metal such as In. The X-ray diffraction pattern of CZTS thin films showed that these films had a stannite structure. This study estimated the optical band gap energy as 1.45 eV. The optical absorption coefficient was in the order of 10(4) cm(-1). The resistivity was in the the order of 10(4) Ohm cm and the conduction type was p-type. Fabricated solar cells, Al/ZnO/CdS/CZTS/Mo/Soda Lime Glass, showed an open-circuit voltage up to 400 mV.
