Chemical composition dependence of morphological and optical properties of Cu(2)ZnSnS(4) thin films deposited by sol-gel sulfurization and Cu(2)ZnSnS(4) thin film solar cell efficiency
[摘要]:The properties of Cu(2)ZnSnS(4) (CZTS) thin films deposited by sol-gel sulfurization were investigated as a function of the chemical composition of the sol-gel solutions used. The chemical composition ratio Cu/(Zn+Sn) of the sol-gel solution was varied from 0.73 to 1.00, while the ratio Zn/Sn was kept constant at 1.15. CZTS films deposited using sol-gel solutions with Cu/(Zn+Sn) < 0.80 exhibited large grains. In addition, the band gaps of these Cu-poor CZTS thin films were blue shifted. Solar cells with the structure Al/ZnO:Al/CdS/CZTS/Mo/soda lime glass were fabricated under non-vacuum conditions. The solar cell with the CZTS layer deposited using the sol-gel solution with Cu/(Zn+Sn)=0.80 exhibited the highest conversion efficiency of 2.03%. (C) 2010 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
