Effects of selenisation temperature on photoluminescence and photoluminescence excitation spectra of ZnO/CdS/Cu2ZnSnSe4/Mo/glass
摘要： The effect of solar cell processing (including etching in KCN along with deposition of CdS and ZnO) on photoluminescence (PL) spectra and bandgap Eg (measured at 4.2 K by photoluminescence excitation) of Cu2ZnSnSe4 films, produced by selenising metallic precursors at 450°C, 500°C and 550°C, was studied. Temperature and excitation intensity analysis of the P1 dominant band in the PL spectra of solar cells suggests that after processing this band still can be assigned to the free-to-bound recombination of free electrons with holes bound at deep acceptor levels influenced by valence band-tails. However processing increased the intensity of P1 and blue shifted it. The strongest effect was observed for the film selenised at 500°C. For the film selenised at 450°C the blue shift and increase in the intensity were smaller and only a slight intensity rise was found for the film selenised at 550°C. The intensity increase we assign to a reduction in the concentration of non-radiative recombination centers on the surface because of the etching and changes in doping due to inter-diffusion of Cd, S, Se and Zn after the deposition of CdS. Such an inter-diffusion depends on the elemental composition of the films defining the chemistry of defects and influencing Eg which increased in the film selenised at 500°C but decreased in the other films. Processing increased the P1 shift rate (j-shift) with excitation power change in all the films demonstrating a higher compensation degree in the solar cells which is consistent with the formation of an interface layer containing new donors CdCu.

A Synergy of Strain Loading and Laser Radiation in Determining the High-Performing Electrical Transports in the Single Cu-Doped SnSe Microbelt
摘要： Semiconducting microbelts are key components of the thermoelectric micro-devices, and their electrical transport properties play significant roles in determining the thermoelectric performance. Here, we report heavily Cu-doped single-crystal SnSe microbelts as potential candidates employed in thermoelectric micro-devices, fabricated by a facile solvothermal route. The considerable Cu-doping concentration of ~11.8 % up to the solubility contributes to a high electrical conductivity of ~416.6 S m-1 at room temperature, improved by one order of magnitude compared with pure SnSe (38.0 S m-1). Meanwhile, after loading ~1 % compressive strain and laser radiation, the electrical conductivity can be further improved to ~601.9 S m-1 and ~589.2 S m-1, respectively, indicating great potentials for applying to thermoelectric micro-devices. Comprehensive structural and compositional characterizations indicate that the Cu+ doping state provides more hole carriers into the system, contributing to the outstanding electrical conductivity. Calculations based on first-principle density functional theory reveal that the heavily doped Cu lowers the Fermi level down into the valence bands, generating holes, and the 1 % strain can further reduce the bandgap, strengthening the ability to release holes, and, in turn, leading to such an excellent electrical transport performance. This study fills the gaps of finding novel materials as potential candidates employed in the thermoelectric micro-devices and provides new ideas for micro/nanoscale thermoelectric material design.

Wafer-size growth of 2D layered SnSe films for UV-Visible-NIR Photodetector Arrays with High Responsitivity
摘要： Due to its excellent electrical and optical property, tin selenide (SnSe), a typical candidate of two-dimentional (2D) semiconductors, has attracted great attention in the field of novel optoelectronics. However, the large-area growth of high-quality SnSe films still remain a great challenge which limit its practical applications. Here, wafer-size SnSe ultrathin films with high uniformity and crystallization are deposited via a scalable magnetron sputtering method. The results show that the SnSe photodetector is highly sensitive to a broad wavelength in the UV-Visible-NIR range, especially showing an extremely high responsivity of 277.3 A W -1 with the corresponding external quantum efficiency of 8.5×104% and detectivity of 7.6×1011 Jones. These figures-of-merits are among the best performance for the sputter-fabricated 2D photodetector devices. The photodetecting mechanisms based on a photogating effect induced by the trapping effect of the localized defects are discussed in details. The results indicate that the few-layered SnSe films from the sputtering growth would have great potential in designing high-performance photodetector arrays.
