Synthesis and characterization of co-electroplated Cu2ZnSnS4 thin films as potential photovoltaic material
Solar Energy Materials and Solar Cells(2011)
摘要
Cu2ZnSnS4 thin films have been successfully prepared by a novel synthesis process that involves a single step deposition of Cu2ZnSnS4 followed by a post-annealing treatment at 550°C for 60min in the atmosphere of N2+H2S (5%). The microstructure, morphology, composition and optical property of the film have been investigated in detail. It is found that the Na2S2O35H2O concentration in the solution has a significant effect on the Cu2ZnSnS4 thin films. X-ray diffraction data indicates that the annealed Cu2ZnSnS4 thin films have a kesterite structure with preferred orientation along the (112) plane. Uniform and compact topographies are observed in some annealed films. From the energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy analysis, it can be seen that Cu-poor and Zn-rich Cu2ZnSnS4 thin films have been obtained. The direct band gap energy of the film is about 1.5eV.
