ABSTRACTThe focus of this work is on back contact improvement for sputtered CZTS thin film solar cells. Three methods have been investigated including a thin Ag coating, a thin ZnO coating on the Mo back contact and rapid thermal annealing of the back contact. All of these methods have been found to reduce defects such as voids as well as secondary phases at the back contact region and inhibit the formation of MoS2. Consequently all the mothods effectively enhances Voc, Jsc, FF and therefore efficiency significantly.

Titanium oxide (TiO2) thin films were deposited onto glass substrates by spray pyrolysis method. The thin films were deposited at three different annealing time; 1, 5 and 10 hours at 400°C. The structural and electrical properties were characterized using FESEM and I-V characteristic. Polycrystalline thin film with anatase crystal structure, as evidenced from X-ray diffraction pattern, was obtained with major reflection along (101). Electrical properties have been studied by means of electrical resistivity. The dark resistivity had been measured as a function of the film thickness, d. The resistivity of samples had been found to decrease with decreasing thickness. Thus, TiO2 is one of the most promising candidates for relatively low cost, simple manufacture for solar cell.

<div style="text-align: justify;">Thin film solar cell experience fast development, especially for thin film solar cell CdTe and Cu(In,Ga)Se2 (CIGS). However, the usage of rare element in the nature such as In, Te, and Ga and toxic such as Cd give limitation in the future development and production growth in big scale. Development of other alternative compound with maintain the profit of electronic and optic character which get from CIGS chalcopyrite compound will be explain. Compound of Cu2ZnSnSe4 (CZTSe) is downward compound from CIGS with substitute the In and Ga element with Zn and Sn. The compound kesterite structure can be modified with variation of chalcogen element to get wanted character in solar cell application. Efficiency record of photovoltaic devices conversion used this compound or downward reach 9.7%.©2016 JNSMR UIN Walisongo. All rights reserved.</div>
