Surface sulfurization of CZTSe thin films is carried out by using one technique that does not utilize toxic H2S gas; a sequential evaporation of SnS after CZTSe deposition and the annealing of CZTSe thin films in selenium vapor. A Cu2ZnSn（S, Se）4 （CZTSSe） thin layer is grown on the surface of the CZTSe thin film after the annealing. The conversion efficiency of the completed device is improved due to the enhancement of Voc, which could be attributed to the formation of a hole-recombination barrier at the surface or the passivation of the surface and grain boundary by S incorporation.展开更多
