Identifying the relationships between subsurface absorber defects and the characteristics of kesterite solar cells

Carbon Energy, 2023
Understanding the defect characteristics that occur near the space‐charge regions (SCRs) of kesterite (CZTSSe) solar cells is important because the recombination loss at the CZTSSe/CdS interface is considered the main cause of their low efficiency ...
