Abstract
Abstract Kesterite solar cells appear to be the most promising for thin film solar cell. The thin films of Cu2ZnSnS4 (CZTS) have been successfully deposited on ordinary glass substrates by blade coating technique. Kesterite solar cell was fabricated using the REMI simulator, in which different CZTS absorber layer. CZTS films were prepared by blade coating of a solution by dissolving of Copper chloride, Zinc chloride, Tin chloride dihyrate and Thiourea in Ethanol with distilled water. The X-ray diffraction studies showed the formation of kesterite phase with the peaks corresponding to (002), (112), (105) and (224). These studies are investigated by surface morphology, structure analysis, optical properties and thickness measurement. Therefore CZTS show better power conversion efficiency which is applicable for kesterite solar cells.
