AbstractWe investigate by photoluminescence (PL) nominally undoped, commercially available Zinc Oxide substrates (from Eagle Picher) grown by seeded chemical vapor transport technique in order to identify residual donors and acceptors. In low temperature PL spectra the dominant emission comes from the decay of bound exciton lines at around 3.36 eV. Zeeman measurements allow the identification of the two strongest lines and some weaker lines in-between as donorrelated. From the associated two-electron satellite lines binding energies of the major donors of 48 meV and 55 meV, respectively, can be deduced.

ABSTRACTThe vibrational properties of kesterite Cu2ZnSnS4 (CZTS) single crystals were studied by polarization-dependent Raman scattering measurements. The CZTS crystals grown by chemical vapor transport technique using iodine trichloride as a transport agent consist of several mirror-like planes. The detailed analysis of the experimental spectra obtained from different planes allows determining the symmetry assignment of the observed Raman-active modes. The wavenumber values of Raman-active modes are compared with the results of recent theoretical calculations. The presented data are useful for examination of CZTS absorber films applied for solar cells to clarify the existence of structural or phase inhomogeneities.

Single crystals of Cu2ZnSn(SxSe1-x)4(CZTSSe) solid solutions have deen grown by chemical vapor transport technique using ICl3as a transport agent. Analyzing the X-ray diffraction patterns reveal that the as-grown CZTSSe solid solutions are crystallized in kesterite structure and the lattice parameters are determined. The S contents of the obtained crystals are estimated by Vegard’s law. The composition dependent band gaps of CZTSSe solid solutions are studied by electrolyte electroreflectance (EER) techniques. The band gaps of CZTSSe are evaluated by a lineshape fit of the EER spectra and are found to increase almost linearly with the increase of S content.

Single crystal growth of CuO, synthetic tenorite, was accomplished in oxygen atmosphere by the chemical vapor transport technique. We present the first systematic study of the growth of CuO in various partial pressures of oxygen. Crystals were grown using trace, 0.1, and 0.5 atm partial pressures of oxygen. The growth temperatures used were 820 and 865 °C. Typical dimensions of the crystals obtained were 1 × 2 × 0.25 mm. We have shown that the stoichiometry of single crystal CuO can be controlled during the growth process. The crystals exhibited cation deficient stoichiometry, Cu1−xO, with x increasing from less than 0.005 with no added oxygen, up to 0.05 with 0.5 atm O2 when grown at 865 °C.
