Abstract:Kesterite Cu 2 ZnSnS 4 thin films were synthesized by the spray pyrolysis method with subsequent annealing at temperatures in the range from 425 to 525°C. To understand the impact of Ag on the Cu 2 ZnSnS 4 structural properties, changes in the elemental and phase composition, as well as microstructure were studied by electron microanalysis, X-ray phase and Raman analysis, scanning probe microscopy and scanning electron microscopy. The obtained samples have a compact morphology without appreciable voids and por… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
