For low Zn concentrations i.e., x < 0.1, the performance of the Cd1−xZnxS–Cu2S solar cells can be improved by reducing the grain-boundary recombination. This has been achieved by growing well-oriented, homogeneous, ternary compound films.It was found that the Cd1−xZnxS films grown on the polycrystalline CdS films achieved the same larger grain size as that of the base layer. These films had fewer misorientations and had a unimodal grain-size distribution. There is a continuity in the crystallites from the CdS base to the Cd1−xZnxS overlayer, and the bifilms thus grown are less resistive than Cd1−xZnxS single layers.
