摘要
Spectrally dependent surface photovoltage measurements were performed with repetitive regime on Cu(In,Ga)S-2 absorbers and on Cu(In,Ga)S-2/CdS and Cu(In,Ga)S-2/In2S3 junctions. The results are correlated to current-voltage investigations of the respective completed solar cells. The measurements show the presence of a space charge region in the bare Cu(In,Ga)S-2 absorbers due to a high density of surface states. It is found that deposition of CdS increases the band bending whereas deposition of In2S3 does not change it. (C) 2013 AIP Publishing LLC.
