Flexible Cu2 ZnSn(S,Se)4 (CZTSSe) solar cells show great potential due to non-toxicity and low cost. The quality of CZTSSe absorber suffering from the high-temperature selenization process is key overcoming open-circuit voltage (VOC ) deficit obtaining high efficiency. In this work, authors develop a technique improve layer by pre-evaporation selenization. This method provides saturated selenium vapor at beginning promote crystallization process. oversaturated source greatly shortens...

The severe carrier recombination at the CZTSSe/CdS heterojunction interface and high toxicity of Cd limit further development flexible Cu2ZnSn(S, Se)4 (CZTSSe) solar cells. Here, we apply a suitable environmentally friendly Zn1–xSnxO (ZTO) buffer layer to suppress in cell for first time. ZTO layers with good qualities have been successfully obtained by varying Sn/(Zn + Sn) value. has an efficiency 8.7%, which is highest reported Cd-free CZTSSe so far. optimal device more ideal diode...
