Abstract:
Photovoltaic devices based on an Ag 2 ZnSn(S,Se) 4  (AZTSSe) absorber and techniques for formation thereof are provided. In one aspect, a method for forming a photovoltaic device includes the steps of: coating a substrate with a conductive layer; contacting the substrate with an Ag source, a Zn source, a Sn source, and at least one of a S source and a Se source under conditions sufficient to form an absorber layer on the conductive layer having Ag, Zn, Sn, and at least one of S and Se; and annealing the absorber layer. Methods of doping the AZTSSe are provided. A photovoltaic device is also provided.

Claim (Index 5):
The photovoltaic device of  claim 2 , wherein the transparent front contact comprises a material selected from the group consisting of: indium-tin-oxide (ITO), aluminum (Al)-doped zinc oxide (ZnO) (AZO)), and combinations thereof.
