Surface sulfurization of CZTSe thin films is carried out by using one technique that does not utilize toxic H2S gas; a sequential evaporation of SnS after CZTSe deposition and the annealing of CZTSe thin films in selenium vapor. A Cu2ZnSn(S, Se)4 (CZTSSe) thin layer is grown on the surface of the CZTSe thin film after the annealing. The conversion efficiency of the completed device is improved due to the enhancement of Voc, which could be attributed to the formation of a hole-recombination barrier at the surface or the passivation of the surface and grain boundary by S incorporation.展开更多

The instrument for three-dimensional (3D) surface topography measurement was composed of a high precision displacement sensor based on the Michelson interference principle, a 3D platform based on vertical scanning, a measuring and control circuit, and an industrial control computer. It was a closed loop control system, which changed the traditional moving stylus scanning style into a moving platform scanning style. When the workpiece was measured, the lever of the displacement sensor returned to the balanced position in every sample interval according to the zero offset of the displacement sensor. The non-linear error caused by the rotation of the lever was, therefore, very small even if the measuring range was wide. The instrument can measure the roughness and the profile size of a curved surface.展开更多
