Investigation on the role of Sb doping on grain growth and properties of solution-processed CuIn(S,Se)2 by Ho, John Chun Wan

“…The enhanced lifetimes can be attributed to defect related recombination from less grain boundaries and the higher density of secondary (204)/(220) grain orientations which has lower density of non-radiative recombination centers. Conductive AFM mapping on Sb doped device with best device performance shows similar current map under positive bias and minimal current when the tip bias is negative, illustrating minimal leakage current in the device. …”

Development of selenization/sulfurization-free CuIn(S,Se)2 for thin film solar cells applications by Wang, Mengxi

“…As mentioned earlier, large CIGS grains will result in films that showed better solar cell performance and one of the reasons is that they have fewer defect sites and recombination centers. As a route to larger grain size, nanoparticles is first synthesized and by encouraging growth in these individual CIGS nanoparticles, micron sized grains can be achieved. …”
