Effect of selenization conditions on the growth and properties of Cu2ZnSn(S,Se)4 thin films

Investigation on the Selenization Treatment of Kesterite Cu2Mg0.2Zn0.8Sn(S,Se)4 Films for Solar Cell

“…As we all know, for the sake of improving the properties of CZTSSe and obtaining CZTSSe films with a single phase and large crystal size, a heat treatment of the precursor films at an elevated temperature (>500 °C) is usually required [21,22]. A large number of studies have shown that the selenization temperature and selenization time significantly influence the properties of the films, including the crystal quality, and optical and electrical properties [23,24,25]. The influence of selenization treatment on the physical performance of CZTSSe has been investigated by extensive researches [21,22,23,24,25].…”

The influence of selenization treatment on the physical performance of CZTSSe has been investigated by extensive researches [21,22,23,24,25]. However, the effects of selenization temperature and selenization time on the phase evolutions, crystal quality, and optical–electrical characteristics of Cu 2 Mg x Zn x Sn(S,Se) 4 have not been reported so far.…”

Synthesis of simple, low cost and benign sol–gel Cu2InxZn1−xSnS4alloy thin films: influence of different rapid thermal annealing conditions and their photovoltaic solar cells

“…In the previous literature, many endeavors are done to vary the annealing condition and its effect on the physical properties of CZTS is demonstrated. [16][17][18][19][20][21] However, no almost report is available on the study about the inuence of the sulfurization temperature and sulfurization time on structural, optical and electrical properties of Cu 2 In x Zn 1Àx SnS 4 thin lms. Consequently, we concentrated on the inuence of sulfurization temperature and sulfurization time on the structural, optical and electrical properties of the Cu 2 In x Zn 1Àx SnS 4 (x ¼ 0.4) alloy thin lms in this paper.…”

Influencing Mechanism of the Selenization Temperature and Time on the Power Conversion Efficiency of Cu2ZnSn(S,Se)4-Based Solar Cells

“…[29][30][31][32][33][34] However, most of the literatures usually focus on control of structure, e.g. preventing phase segregation, and increment of grain size and compactness of the 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48 49 50 51 52 53 54 55 56 57 58 59 60 4/ 34 properties of CZTSSe-based solar cell is still argued up to now.…”
