Abstrakt: The earth-abundant ternary compound BaZrS 3 , which crystallizes in the perovskite-type structure, has come into view as a promising candidate for photovoltaic applications. We present the synthesis and characterization of polycrystalline perovskite-type BaZrS 3 thin films. BaZrO 3 precursor layers were deposited by pulsed laser deposition and sulfurized at various temperatures in an argon-diluted H 2 S atmosphere. We observe increasing incorporation of sulfur for higher annealing temperatures, accompanied by a red shift of the absorption edge, with a bandgap of E g = 1.99 eV and a large absorption strength >10 5 cm -1 obtained for sulfurization temperatures of 1000 °C. X-ray diffraction analysis and SEM indicate enhanced crystallization at the higher annealing temperatures, but no evidence for a crystalline solid solution between the BaZrO 3 and BaZrS 3 phases is found. The charge carrier sum mobility estimated from optical-pump-terahertz-probe spectroscopy indicates increasing mobilities with increasing sulfurization temperature, reaching maximum values of up to ∼2 cm 2 V -1 s -1 .
