“…The chemical composition and structural properties of the CZTS layer depend on the deposition process and sulphurization temperature 17, 18 . Among several deposition methods 9–14, 19, 20 , sputter deposition technique provides precise control of film thickness over large area, in-situ crystal quality by tuning working pressure during deposition, and chemical composition of the deposited layer 21–23 . Furthermore, deposition of CZTS using a single-step sputtering from a quaternary Cu 2 ZnSnS 4 target offers many advantages, including the uniform composition of the thin film, smooth surface, simple process and high reproducibility 24 .…”
