A modeling study on utilizing low temperature sprayed In2S3 as the buffer layer of CuBaSn(S, Se) solar cells
Abstract This study represents the investigation of In2S3 thin films as an electron transport layer in the CuBaSn(S, Se)-CBT(S, Se) solar cells, which have been deposited using the Chemical Spray Pyrolysis method. For studying the electrical properties of films such as conduction and valence band, c...
