Secondary phases in Cu2ZnSnS4 thin film solar cell: The role of interfaces

Yi-Man Zhang et al.

Summary: The study found that the presence of Cu2S secondary phase is not harmful and may even improve the photovoltaic performance of CZTS, while the presence of ZnS secondary phase is detrimental and should be avoided.

Waste- and Cd-Free Inkjet-Printed Zn(O,S) Buffer for Cu(In,Ga)(S,Se)2 Thin-Film Solar Cells

Van Ben Chu et al.

Summary: Chemical bath methods for growing thin film semiconductors produce a lot of waste solvent and chemicals. This study successfully replaced the toxic chemical bath deposited CdS buffer layer with a benign inkjet-printed and annealed Zn(O,S) layer, greatly reducing solvent and chemical usage. The wetting and final performance of the Zn(O,S) layer on CIGS can be controlled by various factors, with the best device efficiency reaching 13.5% through optimization.

Interface Engineering of Cu(In,Ga)Se2 Solar Cells by Optimizing Cd- and Zn-Chalcogenide Alloys as the Buffer Layer

Rong Wang et al.

Summary: By tuning the compositions of Cd and Zn chalcogenides, the band alignment at the buffer/absorber interface in high-efficiency Cu(In,Ga)-Se-2 (CIGS) solar cells is optimized. The study investigates the compositional dependence of ZnxCd1-xSySe1-y and ZnSxO1-x alloys, demonstrating their potential as promising buffer layers for CIGS solar cells.

Investigation of GaAs surface treatments for ZnSe growth by molecular beam epitaxy without a buffer layer

Chaomin Zhang et al.

Summary: The study investigates epitaxial regrowth without a buffer layer on ZnSe/GaAs model system after various As-fluxes, atomic Ga flux, and atomic hydrogen treatments. It demonstrates that high quality ZnSe layer can be achieved by atomic hydrogen surface treatment at 300 degrees C without requiring GaAs buffer layer growth.

Synergistic incorporation of NaF and CsF PDT for high efficiency kesterite solar cells: unveiling of grain interior and grain boundary effects

Xiaohuan Chang et al.

Summary: The introduction of alkali metal post-deposition treatment has significantly improved the efficiency of CZTSSe solar cells. By developing a dual alkali metal synergistic incorporation strategy and discussing the different roles of NaF and CsF post-deposition treatments in detail, the device efficiency was increased from 10.12% to 12.16%. This research provides insights into the potential of alkali metal post-deposition treatment in kesterite photovoltaics.
