Pure kesterite phase thin films of Cu2ZnSnS4 (CZTS) were synthesized at different substrate temperatures using sulphate precursors by spray pyrolysis method. The significance of synthesis temperature on the structural, morphological and optical properties has been studied. The X-ray analysis assured that synthesized CZTS thin films showing pure kesterite phase. The value of crystallite size was found maximum at the substrate temperature 400 °C. At the same temperature, microstructural properties such as dislocation density, micro-strain and stacking fault probability were found minimum. The morphological examination designates the development of porous and uniform CZTS thin films. The synthesized CZTS thin films illustrate excellent optical absorption (105 cm−1) in the visible band and the optical band gap varies in the range of 1.489 eV to 1.499 eV.Pure kesterite phase thin films of Cu2ZnSnS4 (CZTS) were synthesized at different substrate temperatures using sulphate precursors by spray pyrolysis method.
