Problems solved by technology

[0004] The pure phase stable region in the phase diagram of the CZTS quaternary system is very narrow, and it is easy to form a binary ternary impurity phase if it deviates from this region. Therefore, it is generally accepted experimentally that the elemental composition of poor copper and rich zinc (Cu / Zn+Sn>0.8; Zn / Sn>1.2) can effectively control the generation of copper-based impurity phases while improving the P-type conductivity of the film, but the formation of impurity phases is difficult to avoid under the condition of non-stoichiometric ratio

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for preparing a CZTSSe thin film doped with silver single substance and its application in flexible solar cells, belonging to the technical field of thin film solar cells. Background technique [0002] Benefited from cost and technical advantages, CdTe, Cu(In,Ga)Se 2 (CIGS) represented by the compound thin film battery has maintained a strong momentum of development in recent years. However, mainstream thin-film solar cells such as CIGS and CdTe are limited by factors such as scarcity of raw materials (In, Ga) and toxic constituent elements (Cd) in the future TW scale production. Compared with the above material systems, Cu 2 ZnSn(SSe) 4 (CZTSSe), the band gap is continuously adjustable in the range of 1.0-1.5eV, and its theoretical conversion efficiency can reach more than 31%. At the same time, CZTSSe has an absorption coefficient as high as 104cm-1 in the visible light range, making it an ideal light-absorbing l...
