    Effect of Substrate Rotation Speed and Off-Center Deposition on the Structural, Optical, and Electrical Properties of Azo Thin Films Fabricated by Dc Magnetron Sputtering
    (American Institute of Physics, 2018) Aygün, Gülnur; Aygün, Gülnur; Köseoğlu, Hasan; Özdemir, Mehtap; Özdemir, Mehtap; Özyüzer, Lütfi; Özyüzer, Lütfi; Özyüzer, Gülnur Aygün; Özyüzer, Lütfi; 04.05. Department of Pyhsics; 04. Faculty of Science; 01. Izmir Institute of Technology
    In this study, aluminum-doped zinc oxide (AZO) thin films were deposited by DC magnetron sputtering at room temperature. The distance between the substrate and target axis, and substrate rotation speed were varied to get high quality AZO thin films. The influences of these deposition parameters on the structural, optical, and electrical properties of the fabricated films were investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Raman spectroscopy, spectrophotometry, and four-point probe techniques. The overall analysis revealed that both sample position and substrate rotation speed are effective in changing the optical, structural, and electrical properties of the AZO thin films. We further observed that stress in the films can be significantly reduced by off-center deposition and rotating the sample holder during the deposition. An average transmittance above 85% in the visible range and a resistivity of 2.02 × 10-3Ω cm were obtained for the AZO films.

    Importance of Cds Buffer Layer Thickness on Cu2znsns4-Based Solar Cell Efficiency
    (IOP Publishing Ltd., 2018) Cantaş, Ayten; Türkoğlu, Fulya; Aygün, Gülnur; Akça, Fatime Gülşah; Özdemir, Mehtap; Tarhan, Enver; Özyüzer, Lütfi; Özyüzer, Gülnur Aygün; Özdemir, Mehtap; Özyüzer, Lütfi; Tarhan, Enver; 04.05.

    Cu2ZnSnS4 (CZTS) thin films were grown on Mo-coated soda lime glass (SLG) substrates by the sulfurization of DC magnetron-sputtered Zn, Sn and Cu metallic precursors under a sulfur atmosphere at 550 °C for 45 min. Understanding the composition and structure of the CZTS absorber layer is necessary to obtain efficient solar cells. With this aim, x-ray diffractometry, Raman spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive spectroscopy and x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy were used to investigate the CZTS absorber layers. CZTS absorber films were obtained and found to be Cu-poor and Zn-rich in composition, which are both qualities desired for efficient solar cells. CdS was used as a buffer layer and was grown by the chemical bath deposition technique. The optical properties of CdS films on SLG were searched for using a spectroscopic ellipsometer and the results revealed that the bandgap increases with film thickness increment. CZTS-based solar cells with different CdS buffer layer thicknesses were prepared using a SLG/Mo/CZTS/CdS/ZnO/AZO solar cell configuration. The influence of the CdS buffer layer thickness on the performance of the CZTS solar cells was investigated. Device analysis showed that electrical characteristics of solar cells strongly depend on the buffer layer's thickness. Highly pronounced changes in V OC, fill factor and J SC parameters, which are the main efficiency limiting factors, with changing buffer layer thicknesses were observed. Our experiments confirmed that decreasing the CdS thickness improved the efficiency of CZTS solar cells down to the lowest thickness limit.
