Article Citation - WoS: 8Citation - Scopus: 8Development of Zto/Ag Transparent Electrodes for Thin Film Solar Cells(Springer, 2022) Türkoğlu, Fulya; Köseoğlu, Hasan; Ekmekçioğlu, Merve; Cantaş, Ayten; Özdemir, Mehtap; Aygün, Gülnur; Özyüzer, LütfiThis article presents the optimization of Zinc Tin Oxide/Silver/Zinc Tin Oxide (ZTO/Ag/ZTO) multilayers to implement them in thin film solar cells as transparent electrodes. To achieve improvements on the performance of these transparent multilayers, effect of Ag and ZTO thicknesses, and position of Ag layer within the multilayer were investigated. Electrical and optical characterization of these multilayers revealed that reduced sheet resistance and improved optical transmittance can be acquired for solar cells by the optimization of thin film thicknesses and position of the Ag within the multilayer. The improvement of the electrical and optical behavior of the ZTO/Ag/ZTO structures enabled figure of merit (FoM) values up to 69.69 × 10–3 Ω−1. The performance of our multilayer electrodes was also compared with ITO and AZO electrodes. The obtained results suggest that fabricated multilayer electrodes can be a good choice for thin film solar cells.Article Citation - WoS: 21Citation - Scopus: 24Effect of Defects and Secondary Phases in Cu2znsns4 Absorber Material on the Performance of Zn(o,s) Buffered Devices(Elsevier Ltd., 2019) Türkoğlu, Fulya; Köseoğlu, Hasan; Cantaş, Ayten; Akça, Fatime Gülşah; Meriç, Ece; Buldu, Dilara Gökçen; Aygün, GülnurCopper zinc fin sulfide (CZTS) absorber layer attracts so much attention in photovoltaic industry since it contains earth abundant, low cost and non-toxic elements contrary to other chalcogenide based solar cells. In the present work, CZTS absorber layers were prepared following a two-stage process: firstly, a stack of metal precursors (Copper (Cu)/Tin (Sn)/Zinc (Zn)/Copper (Cu)) were deposited on molybdenum (Mo) substrate by magnetron sputtering, then this stack was annealed under S atmosphere inside a tubular furnace. CZTS thin films were investigated using energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy and Raman spectroscopy. The effect of sulfurization time and the thickness of top and bottom Cu layer in precursors on the properties of CZTS thin films were investigated. The importance of Cu thickness adjacent to Sn to avoid detrimental phases was addressed. The significance of sulfurization time to restrict the Sn and Zn losses, formation of oxides such as fin dioxide and zinc oxide, and formation of molybdenum disulfide and voids between Mo/CZTS interface was also addressed. Moreover, cadmium sulfide buffer layer, which is conventionally used in CZTS solar cells, is replaced by an environmentally friendly alternative zinc oxysulfide buffer layer.Article Citation - WoS: 15Citation - Scopus: 17Effect 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) Türkoğlu, Fulya; Aygün, Gülnur; Köseoğlu, Hasan; Özdemir, Mehtap; Zeybek, S.; Özyüzer, Lütfi; Özdemir, Mehtap; Özyüzer, Gülnur Aygün; Özyüzer, LütfiIn 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.Article Citation - WoS: 42Citation - Scopus: 46Importance of Cds Buffer Layer Thickness on Cu2znsns4-Based Solar Cell Efficiency(IOP Publishing Ltd., 2018) Cantaş, Ayten; Türkoğlu, Fulya; Meriç, Ece; Akça, Fatime Gülşah; Özdemir, Mehtap; Tarhan, Enver; Özyüzer, Lütfi; Özyüzer, Gülnur AygünCu2ZnSnS4 (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.Article Citation - WoS: 39Citation - Scopus: 40Interferometer Measurements of Terahertz Waves From Bi 2sr 2cacu 2o 8+d Mesas(IOP Publishing Ltd., 2012) Türkoğlu, Fulya; Köseoğlu, Hasan; Demirhan, Yasemin; Özyüzer, Lütfi; Preu, Sascha; Malzer, Stefan; Şimşek, Yusuf; Müller, P.; Yamamoto, T.; Kadowaki, K.We fabricated rectangular mesa structures of superconducting Bi 2Sr 2CaCu 2O 8+d (Bi2212) using e-beam lithography and Ar ion beam etching techniques for terahertz (THz) emission. c-axis resistance versus temperature (R-T), current-voltage (I-V) characteristics and bolometric THz power measurements were performed to characterize Bi2212 mesas. The emission frequency of mesas was determined using a Michelson interferometer setup which also demonstrates polarized emission. Interference patterns of THz radiation from Bi2212 mesas were detected by various detectors such as a liquid helium cooled silicon composite bolometer, a Golay cell and a pyroelectric detector. An emitted power as high as 0.06mW was detected from Bi2212 mesas. For the first time, most of the pumped power was extracted as THz emission from a Bi2212 mesa. The radiation at 0.54THz was detected using the Michelson interferometric setup.Article Citation - WoS: 24Citation - Scopus: 26The Fabrication of Thz Emitting Mesas by Reactive Ion-Beam Etching of Superconducting Bi2212 With Multilayer Masks(Springer Verlag, 2011) Köseoğlu, Hasan; Türkoğlu, Fulya; Şimşek, Yılmaz; Özyüzer, LütfiGeneration of powerful THz radiation from intrinsic Josephson Junctions (IJJs) of Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8+δ (Bi2212) may require mesas with large lateral dimensions. However, there are difficulties in fabrication of perfect rectangular mesas. The lateral angles of mesas should be close to 90 degrees to obtain IJJs with same planar dimensions for synchronization of IJJs. We patterned Ta/photoresist and photoresist/Ta/photoresist masks on Bi2212 and used selectiveionetchingtoovercomethethickphotoresistlayershading on the lateral dimension of mesa during the ion-beam etching. The reactive ion-beam etchings have been done with ion beams of Ar, N2 and O2, and we have obtained mesas about 1 µm with lateral angle of approximately 50 to 75°, which is better than the mesas fabricated with photoresist mask.Article Citation - WoS: 40Citation - Scopus: 45Terahertz Wave Emission From Intrinsic Josephson Junctions in High- Tc Superconductors(IOP Publishing Ltd., 2009) Özyüzer, Lütfi; Şimşek, Yılmaz; Köseoğlu, Hasan; Türkoğlu, Fulya; Kurter, Cihan; Welp, U.; Koshelev, A. E.; Gray, Kenneth E.; Kwok, W. K.; Yamamoto, T.; Kadowaki, K.; Koval, Yu I.; Wang, Huabing; Müller, Paul H.Recently, we experimentally demonstrated that rectangular mesa structures of intrinsic Josephson junctions (IJJ) in Bi2Sr2CaCu 2O8+d (Bi2212) can be used as a compact solid-state generator of continuous, coherent and polarized terahertz (THz) radiation. In the present work, we will exhibit tall mesas (over 600 junctions) which were fabricated using UV lithography, e-beam lithography with photoresist and e-beam lithography with a Ti selective etching technique. We will present measurements of the c-axis resistance as a function of temperature and of current-voltage characteristics of THz emitting mesas with lateral sizes ranging from 30 × 300 to 100 × 300νm2. Furthermore, we will discuss the dependence of the characteristics of the mesa structures on the oxygen doping level of the Bi2212 crystals. We will also experimentally show that the voltage-frequency relation of the ac Josephson effect has to match the cavity resonance for successful emission.
