New Earth-Abundant Thin Film Solar Cells Based on Chalcogenides

Frontiers in Chemistry, 2019
At the end of 2017 roughly 1.8% of the worldwide electricity came from solar photovoltaics (PV), which is foreseen to have a key role in all major future energy scenarios with an installed capacity around 5 TW by 2050.

Spectroscopy of Cu2ZnSnS4 nanoparticle inks and Cu2ZnSn(S,Se)4 solar cells [PDF]

Kesterite Cu2ZnSn(S,Se)4 (CZTSSe) is an encouraging candidate for thin film photovoltaic de-vices as it is a direct bandgap semiconductor with a high absorption coefficient. Its constituent ele-ments are Earth-abundant which is advantageous for large scale commercialisation.

Mitigating diffusion-length limitations in back-contact CZTSSe solar cells via synergistic field-effect engineering: a two-dimensional TCAD simulation study [PDF]

RSC Advances
Interdigitated back-contact (IBC) architectures can eliminate front-surface parasitic absorption, yet their application to kesterite Cu2ZnSn(S,Se)4 (CZTSSe) absorbers is strongly constrained by the mismatch between the minority-carrier diffusion length ...

Effect of Sulfurization Temperature on the Properties of Cu2ZnSn(S,Se)4 Thin Films

Korean Journal of Materials Research, 2013
(CZTSSe) thin films were prepared by sulfurization of evaporated precursor thin films. Precursor was prepared using evaporation method at room temperature. The sulfurization was carried out in a graphite box with S powder at different temperatures. The temperatures were varied in a four step process from to .
