Abstract

The effects of alkali doping (Na, Li, K) on the carrier transport in Cu2ZnSn(S, Se)4 (CZTSSe) thin films have been studied systematically using time-resolved THz spectroscopy. Na and Li doping seem to have no influence on the carrier mobility, whereas K doping leads to a noticeable decrease. In addition, we found that Na doping increases the lifetime of photocarriers, but Li and K doping do not. Consequently, we are able to evaluate the diffusion length of photocarriers as a function of the alkali dopants. This result provides a helpful orientation for future efforts to improve the performance of CZTSSe-based solar cells.

碱掺杂对Cu2ZnSn(S, Se)4薄膜载流子输运的影响
采用时间分辨太赫兹光谱系统地研究了碱掺杂(Na, Li, K)对Cu2ZnSn(S, Se)4 (CZTSSe)薄膜载流子输运的影响。Na和Li掺杂对载流子迁移率似乎没有影响,而K掺杂导致载流子迁移率明显降低。此外,我们发现Na掺杂增加了光载流子的寿命,而Li和K掺杂则没有。因此,我们能够评估光载流子的扩散长度作为碱掺杂剂的函数。这一结果为今后提高基于cztse的太阳能电池的性能提供了有益的方向。
