Impact of Lithium as Interfacial Treatment for CZTSSe Solar Cells
Cu2ZnSn(S,Se)4 (CZTSSe), despite its slow progress in terms of efficiency, stands out as a viable option for solar cell absorber materials due to its comparatively low-cost fabrication process, and abundance of constituent elements. The efficiency of CZTSSe faces challenges, particularly a notable Voc deficit arising from its non-stoichiometric nature ...

Study of CZTS and CZTSSe solar cells for buffer layers selection
Applied Surface Science, 2017Abstract The output characteristics, of a thin film solar cell, are affected by several parameters related to the hetero-structure that is taken into account. In this paper, nontoxic thin film solar cells were studied. CdS/CZTS, CdS/CZTSSe, ZnS/CZTS and ZnS/CZTSSe hetero-junctions were numerically simulated using the Solar Cell Capacitance Simulator (

Suppressing Element Inhomogeneity Enables 14.9% Efficiency CZTSSe Solar Cells
Advanced MaterialsAbstractKesterites, Cu2ZnSn(SxSe1−x)4 (CZTSSe), solar cells suffer from severe open‐circuit voltage (VOC) loss due to the numerous secondary phases and defects. The prevailing notion attributes this issue to Sn‐loss during the selenization. However, this work unveils that, instead of Sn‐loss, elemental inhomogeneity caused by Cu‐directional diffusion ...
