Study on the Optimization of Cu-Zn-Sn-O to Prepare Cu2ZnSnS4 Thin Film via a Nano Ink Coating Method [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Chemistry, 2021
To reduce the formation of the impurity phase, a buffer volume can be used to expands and smooths the surface of Cu2ZnSnS4(CZTS) thin film. In this study, a Cu-Zn-Sn-O(CZTO) precursor was synthesized through the process of coprecipitation-calcination ...

Transport properties of Cu2ZnSnS4

open access: yesMoldavian Journal of the Physical Sciences, 2012
Temperature dependence of the resistivity, p(T), of five single crystalline p-Cu2ZnSnS4 samples is investigated in the interval of T ~ 30010 K. Below ~200 K, p(T) exhibits an activated behavior obeying the Mott variable-range hopping conductivity law ...
