摘要：
Copper zinc tin sulfide thin films were successfully prepared by spin coating on Molybdenum-coated glass substrates. The as-deposited thin films were annealed at 400 degrees C, 450 degrees C, and 500 degrees C in an Argon atmosphere for 1hr. X-ray diffraction studies revealed that the thin films present the kesterite phase. The band gap decreased with increasing annealing temperature. Schottky barrier-type structures were fabricated and showed a rectifying behavior. The estimated values of the barrier height, the built-in voltage, and the doping density were, respectively, phi(B)=0.71eV, N-a=5x10(18)cm(-3), and V-bi=0.33V for annealed films.
