1. Alternative back contacts for CZTS thin film solar cells
Sammanfattning : In this thesis, alternative back contacts for Cu2ZnSnS4 (CZTS) thin film solar cells were investigated. Back contacts for two different configurations were studied, namely traditional single-junction cells with opaque back contacts and transparent back contacts for possible use in either tandem or bifacial solar cell configuration.

2. Annealing of Cu2ZnSn(S,Se)4 Thin Films : A Study of Secondary Compounds and Their Effects on Solar Cells
Sammanfattning : Kesterite Cu2ZnSnS4 (CZTS) is interesting as a sustainable photovoltaic technology due to its earth-abundant elements and suitable semiconducting properties. To date, a record efficiency of 12.6% has been achieved but further improvements are required to reach high efficiency for industrial implementation. LÄS MER
3. Sputtering of Precursors for Cu2ZnSnS4 Solar Cells and Application of Cadmium Free Buffer Layers
Sammanfattning : The aim of this thesis is to understand the influence of the deposition process and resulting film properties on Cu2ZnSnS4 (CZTS) thin film solar cells. Two main aspects are studied, namely formation of absorber precursors by sputtering, and alternative Cd-free buffer materials with improved band alignment. LÄS MER
4. Sputtering-based processes for thin film chalcogenide solar cells on steel substrates
Sammanfattning : Thin film chalcogenide solar cells are promising photovoltaic technologies. Cu(In,Ga)Se2 (CIGS)-based devices are already produced at industrial scale and record laboratory efficiency surpasses 22 %. Cu2ZnSn(S,Se)4 (CZTS) is an alternative material that is based on earth-abundant elements. LÄS MER
5. Band gap engineering in Cu2ZnGexSn1-xS4 thin film solar cells
Sammanfattning : Photovoltaics based on kesterite Cu2ZnSnS4 (CZTS) has attracted interest as a sustainable alternative to other thin film technologies due to their tunable material properties and earth-abundance. However, the efficiency is limited to 12. LÄS MER
