Abstract

The invention discloses a method for preparing a copper zinc tin sulfur selenium thin film by using an alloy rotary target material. The method comprises the following steps of: (1) heating a substrate on which a molybdenum layer is deposited until the temperature rises to 300 to 400 DEG C, regulating sputtering power to 30 to 200 W by using a sputtering method, and sputtering to obtain a first thin film, wherein the surface of the first thin film is in a copper-poor zinc-rich state; (2) regulating the temperature of the substrate to 400 to 600 DEG C, regulating the sputtering power to 80 to 200 W by using the sputtering method, and sputtering to obtain a second thin film, wherein the surface of the second thin film is in a copper-rich state; and (3) regulating the temperature of the substrate to 400 to 600 DEG C, regulating the sputtering power to 30 to 200 W by using the sputtering method, and sputtering to obtain a third thin film, wherein the surface of the second thin film is in a copper-poor state, so that the copper zinc tin sulfur selenium thin film is prepared.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for preparing a copper-zinc-tin-sulfur-selenide thin film, in particular to a method for preparing a copper-zinc-tin-sulfur-selenium thin film by using an alloy rotating target. Background technique [0002] As the most promising thin-film solar cell technology listed by the U.S. Department of Energy and other well-known solar cell research institutions, CIGS solar cell technology is attracting more and more researchers and investors with its extensive advantages . So far, the efficiency of copper indium gallium selenide solar cells has exceeded 20.3% in the laboratory, which is equivalent to that of single crystal silicon. At the same time, more and more companies and institutions are working on the trial production and commercial expansion of this technology. However, the industrialization of CIGS solar cells still lags behind monocrystalline silicon solar cells and other thin-film solar cells, such as cadmium tell...
