Role of Nitrogen Doping in Defect Control and Phase Stability of Sulfurized SnS Thin Films

open access: yesphysica status solidi (b), Volume 263, Issue 6, June 2026.
Nitrogen doping in SnS thin films influences defect formation and phase stability during sulfurization. Moderate N incorporation suppresses secondary phases and enhances carrier concentration at high temperatures. Carrier transport shifts from grain‐boundary‐limited to ionized‐impurity‐limited conduction, indicating activation of electrically active ...
