Stability of Cd 1-x Zn x O y S 1-y Quaternary Alloys Assessed with First-Principles Calculations.
ACS Applied Materials & Interfaces 2017 Februrary 23
One route to decreasing the absorption in CdS buffer layers in Cu(In,Ga)Se2 and Cu2 ZnSn(S,Se)4 thin-film photovoltaics is by alloying. Here we use first-principles calculations based on hybrid functionals to assess the energetics and stability of quaternary Cd, Zn, O, and S (Cd1-x Znx Oy S1-y ) alloys within a regular solution model. Our results identify that full miscibility of most Cd1-x Znx Oy S1-y compositions and even binaries like Zn(O,S) is outside typical photovoltaic processing conditions. The results suggest that the tendency for phase separation of the oxysulfides may drive the nucleation of other phases such as sulfates that have been increasingly observed in oxygenated CdS and ZnS.
