摘要
Surface morphology plays a crucial role in influencing the film quality and photoelectric conversion efficiency (PCE) of a Kesterite Cu2ZnSn(S, Se)4 (CZTSSe) solar cell. Herein, the bismuth (Bi) doping strategy to improve the surface morphology of the solution-processed CZTSSe film for high solar cell efficiency is reported. With a two-step selenization strategy to facilitate the Bi-doped CZTSSe (CZTBiSSe) phase formation, improving the crys-talline quality of the absorber, increasing the carrier mobility, and reducing the band tailing, a cell efficiency of 6.94% has been achieved. These results demonstrate the significance of Bi doping into CZTSSe to improve the device's performance. This work offers new insights into the effects of Bi doping on CZTSSe via a solution -processed approach and provides a deeper understanding of the origin of the efficiency improvement of Bi-doped CZTSSe thin film solar cells.
