Crystallization study of the CuSbS2 chalcogenide material for solar applications
Abstract
Second generation thin-film chalcogenide materials, in particular CuInGa(S,Se)<sub>2</sub> (CIGS) and CdTe, have been among the most promising candidates for large-scale PV manufacturing and are quickly becoming commercial products. These materials offer stable and efficient (above 10%) photovoltaic modules fabricated by scalable thin-film technologies and cell efficiencies above 20 % (CIGS). CuSbS<sub>2</sub> is a chalcogenide that was discovered in 1942 as a dark gray mineral in Morocco/Tunisia. CuSbS<sub>2</sub> is a relatively new material with little research published but is expected to be interesting for environmentally amenable solar cells, as its constituents are nontoxic and are relatively abundant in the earth's crust. CuSbS<sub>2</sub> thin films show p-type conductivity, a band gap of around 1.5 eV, which is ideal to achieve the highest solar-cell conversion efficiency, and a relatively high optical absorption in the visible light range. It also benefits from a low crystallization temperature of 250°C, which allows easier synthesis for flexible solar cells.
