When Are Capacitance–Voltage, Drive‐Level Capacitance Profiling, and Fast‐CV Actually Insensitive to Interface and Bulk Defects?

open access: yesSolar RRL, Volume 10, Issue 6, 29 March 2026.
Capacitance‐based techniques are widely applied to profile doping in one‐sided semiconductor junctions, yet defect states can distort interpretation. Time‐dependent simulations compare capacitance–voltage, drive‐level capacitance profiling, and Fast‐CV, revealing their sensitivity to trap dynamics and providing guidance for interpreting capacitance ...

Investigating synthesis of Cu2ZnSn(Se1-x,Sx)4 for values of 0≤x≤1 by S for Se substitution and direct sulphidisation of metallic precursors [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Thin layers of Cu2ZnSn(Se1-x,Sx)4 were produced by selenisation and subsequent sulphur substitution of DC sputter-deposited metallic CZT precursors on soda-lime glass. Values of x=(0, 0.07, 0.12, 0.17, 0.28, 1) were measured by EDS.

Decoupling of optoelectronic properties from morphological changes in sodium treated kesterite thin film solar cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Sodium is typically used during the synthesis of kesterite thin films to enhance the performance of solar cells. As sodium tends to affect grain growth and morphology, it is difficult to analyse solely the electronic effects of sodium as dopant.

Overview of Ge-incorporated kesterite solar cells [PDF]

open access: yesChinese Science Bulletin, 2020
Kesterite (CZTS(e)) solar cell has attracted tremendous interest for its feature: Earth-abundant composition, convenient fabrication process, environmental friendliness and low cost. However, the severe large voltage deficient in CZTS(e) solar cell remains a challenge for further enhancement of the power conversion efficiency (PCE).

Li Incorporation Induces Surface Chemical Disorder in Solution‐Processed Cu2ZnSn(S,Se)4

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, Volume 13, Issue 5, 4 March 2026.
Lithium incorporation into Cu2ZnSn(S,Se)4 (CZTSSe) thin‐film semiconductors is highly beneficial for solar power conversion efficiencies, although directly visualising its impact on the absorber is difficult. Energy‐filtered photoemission electron microscopy measurements reveal lithium alloying induces surface chemical disorder of CZTSSe, highlighted ...
