In order to achieve the purpose, the invention adopts the following technical scheme:
the atomic weight of the transition group elements is similar to that of Zn, and the preparation method is easy to realize Zn 2+ Substitutional doping of (c). As the radius of the doping element atoms is different from that of the Zn atoms, the doping element atoms enter the CZTS crystal lattice to occupy the Zn position to cause lattice distortion, and the matching degree of the CZTS and the crystal lattice structure of the buffer layer material is improved. The lattice distortion changes the original periodic potential field of the crystal, and because the electronic structure of the doping element atoms is different from that of Zn atoms, the doping element atoms enter the CZTS lattice and affect the CZTS energy band structure. CZTS belongs to a p-type semiconductor and is doped with a minority electron atom, which traps electrons from the valence band to generate holes, reduces the valence band electron concentration, lowers the fermi level, and bends the energy band downward. First principle pair CZT based on density functional theoryResearch on the S energy band structure finds that the influence of Zn on the forbidden band width of CZTS is small, the optical band gap of the CZTS film of 1.5eV is not greatly changed by substitutional doping of Zn, the band structure can be slightly regulated by controlling the dosage of doping elements, and finally the optical band gap can reach 1.4eV which has the best matching property with the solar spectrum.
