The order-disorder transition in Cu2ZnSnS4 – A neutron scattering investigation [PDF]
Abstract In this work a series of stoichiometric Cu2ZnSnS4 (CZTS) samples annealed at different temperatures in the range of 473–623 K were investigated. The temperature dependence of the Cu/Zn-order-disorder behavior was analyzed by neutron powder diffraction measurements.
