    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Cu2ZnSnS4; Kesterite; Reactive sputtering; Process curve; Photovoltaics; Composition measurments; Teknisk fysik med inriktning mot elektronik; Engineering Science with specialization in Electronics;

    Abstract : Cu2ZnSnS4 (CZTS) is a thin film solar cell material that only contains abundant elements and for which promising conversion efficiencies of 9.2 % have been shown. In this thesis composition measurements and reactive sputtering of precursors for CZTS films have been studied. These precursors can be annealed to create high quality CZTS films. READ MORE

  5. 3. Sputtering of Precursors for Cu2ZnSnS4 Solar Cells and Application of Cadmium Free Buffer Layers

    Author : Tove Ericson; Charlotte Platzer-Björkman; Tomas Kubart; Marika Edoff; Yaroslav Romanyuk; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; solar cells; thin film; buffer layer; sputtering; reactive sputtering; CZTS; kesterite; zinc tin oxide; Teknisk fysik med inriktning mot elektronik; Engineering Science with specialization in Electronics;

    Abstract : The aim of this thesis is to understand the influence of the deposition process and resulting film properties on Cu2ZnSnS4 (CZTS) thin film solar cells. Two main aspects are studied, namely formation of absorber precursors by sputtering, and alternative Cd-free buffer materials with improved band alignment. READ MORE

  6. 4. Potential-Induced Degradation and possibilities for recovery of CuIn1-xGaxSe2 thin film solar cells
