Thin-film solar cells constituted of abundant elements are the key to ensure mass production, reduce energy costs and meet energy demands. Kesterite, is a cost-effective light absorber, however showed low...
Kesterite-structured Cu2ZnSnS4 (CZTS) is an earth-abundant and non-toxic semiconductor that is being studied for use as the absorber layer in thin-film solar cells.
A simple and cost-effective co-electrodeposition process has been demonstrated to fabricate high-performance Cu2ZnSnS4 (CZTS) photovoltaic materials with composition tunability and phase controllability.
