  • 由於銅鋅錯位導致開路電壓無法上升的問題,使得效率超過12.6%的
    地表多豐CZTSSe(銅鋅錫硫硒)太陽能電池是非常困難的。藉由其他地
    表富有的元素且必須有更⼤的原⼦半徑來取代鋅或銅元素以利克服錯
    位的問題,並更進⼀步提升開路電壓。在本研究中,我們以鋇取代鋅,
    使之形成三⽅晶系的CBTSSe(銅鋇錫硫硒)太陽能電池,並且提出⼀
    種簡單且製程成本低的非真空噴霧裂解製程來製備銅鋇錫硫硒太陽能
    電池。
    然⽽利⽤非真空⽔溶液製程製備CBTSSe的前驅層中會有不均勻性的
    問題,肇因於鋇元素和氧元素具有親和⼒並且氯元素會抑制CBTSSe
    相⽣成,我們改良噴霧熱裂解時的基板溫度以及在後續增加額外的烘
    烤以克服上述等問題,在最後,我們成功使⽤非真空製成製備出效率
    達到0.6%的CBTSSe太陽能電池。


    Reaching efficiency more than 12.6% in earth-abundant CZTSSe(Copper Zinc
    Tin Sulpho-selenide) solar cells is very challenging as Copper-Zinc disorder remains
    the biggest barrier in reaching higher open-circuit voltage. Replacing either Zinc or
    Copper by another earth-abundant element bigger in size can solve the disordering
    issue and subsequently reach a higher open-circuit voltage. In this work, we
    replace Zinc with Barium and form a promising trigonal structure earth-abundant
    Cu2BaSn(S,Se)4 (CBTSSe) solar cells. Our work presents a simple and inexpensive
    solution-based approach to fabricate earth-abundant Copper Barium Tin Sulphoselenide(CBTSSe) solar cells.
    To fabricate CBTSSe solar cells by non-vacuum and solution-based process is
    challenging as non-uniformity in precursor due to barium affinity towards oxygen
    and chlorine refrain the phase formation. To solve this problem we devised a spray
    and bake method to form for the first time 0.6% efficient CBTSSe solar cells by
    water-based spray pyrolysis process.
