The paper reviews the state of the art in the synthesis of multinary (ternary, quaternary and
more complex) metal chalcogenide nanocrystals (NCs) and their applications as a light …

For further efficiency improvement in kesterite-type Cu2ZnSn (S, Se) 4 (CZTSSe) solar cells,
it is essential to address the carrier recombination issue at the back electrode interface (BEI) …

The co-existing secondary phases, in off-stoichiometric Cu-Zn-Sn-S (CZTS) solar cells, are
one of the main causes of performance gap between earth abundant CZTS and matured Cu …

Cd‐free high‐bandgap Cu2ZnSnS4 (CZTS) solar cells are expected to offer green and low‐
cost solutions to single‐junction and tandem photovoltaic markets. Despite attracting …

Abstract Five types of Cu 2 ZnSn (S, Se) 4 (CZTSSe) films were fabricated by selenization of
Cu 2 ZnSnS 4 (CZTS) precursor films preparing through Cu-Zn-Sn-S precursor solutions …

There are several methods for the evaluation of the performance of solar cells through the
voltage loss. However, the advantages and disadvantages of each method have not been …

Large open-circuit voltage deficit is still the main factor restricting the performance of
kesterite Cu 2 ZnSn (S, Se) 4 thin film solar cells. The high concentration of Cu Zn defects …

Voltage-loss analysis is essential in the development of next-generation solar cells, such as
perovskite, chalcopyrite, kesterite, and nano/quantum-structured solar cells. Voltage-loss …

Summary The performance of Cu 2 ZnSn (S, Se) 4 thin-film solar cells, commonly referred to
as kesterite or CZTSSe, is limited by open-circuit voltage (V OC) values less than 60% of the …

The crystal structure identification of the photovoltaic material Cu2ZnSnSe4 (CZTSe) is
challenging due to the distinguishing feature between the two polymorphs, kesterite and …
