Popis: | Copper Zinc Tin Sulphide (Cu2ZnSnS4) materials are of interest for Photovoltaic applications. In this work, i.e., the first phase of Cu2ZnSnS4 synthesis, Cu-Zn-Sn film precursors were synthesised using electron beam deposition. The crystal structure of the synthesised film precursors were characterised by X-ray Diffraction (XRD) and elemental composition identification performed using Rutherford Backscattering Spectrometry (RBS). The synthesis results obtained are in agreement with those presented in the literature indicating that the metallic CZT film precursors were successfully synthesised. |
