Abstract

Cu 2 CdSnS 4 is an important candidate material for thin-film solar cell absorber layers. In this work, a low-cost Cu 2 CdSnS 4 thin film with a cernyite structure has been successfully fabricated by sulfurization of the precursor film obtained by co-sputtering three different targets: Cu, Sn and CdS. The resulting sulfurized Cu 2 CdSnS 4 thin film shows large densely packed grains and has a band gap value of 1.4 eV and a hole mobility of 21.35 cm 2 v −1 s −1 . Thus, a Cu 2 CdSnS 4 thin-film solar cell with a proof of concept power conversion efficiency of 1.14% was fabricated.
