Problems solved by technology

In 2011, IBM introduced Cu 2 ZnSn(S,Se) 4 The conversion efficiency of thin-film batteries has been increased to 10.1%, but hydrazine hydrate is highly toxic and unstable, and it is very difficult to handle
However, the Scragg group adopts the N 2 / H 2 Sulfide the CZTS precursor in +S atmosphere, the process will generate H 2 explosion and the production of toxic H 2 S has caused great danger and environmental pollution; although the Ennaoui group optimized the Scragg group by co-depositing a metal prefabricated layer Cu-Zn-Sn post-sulfurization CZTS process, it is unavoidable to use H 2 S gas, and the total annealing time is greater than 8 hours, which is far from meeting the needs of industrial production

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of semiconductor materials and devices, and relates to a method for preparing a copper-zinc-tin-sulfur absorbing layer film and a method for preparing a copper-zinc-tin-sulfur thin film solar cell. Background technique [0002] With the continuous progress of human society, energy and environment have become two important issues facing human society. With the increasing shortage of fossil energy and the environmental pollution caused by the use of fossil energy, governments of various countries have introduced corresponding policies to develop and utilize renewable new energy. Solar power generation is more superior than other energy sources in terms of renewable, large amount, wide distribution, etc., or in terms of technical safety and reliability. In the future, with the development of photovoltaic power generation technology, solar photovoltaic power generation will become a research hotspot in the global new ene...
