Abstract

Cu2ZnSnS4 thin films have been synthesized through sulfurization of co-electrodeposited Cu-Zn-Sn metallic precursor. The obtained metallic precursor shows homogeneous surface. Combination of X-ray diffraction, energy dispersive X-Ray spectroscopy and Raman spectroscopy results shows that kesterite structure of Cu2ZnSnS4 is formed, demonstrating that co-electrodeposition-sulfurization is a viable process for the synthesis of Cu2ZnSnS4 film.
