Kesterite based on Cu2ZnSnS4 composition is considered as a promising absorber material for the next generation of photovoltaics due to raw materials abundance and low toxicity. Developing superstrate architecture using kesterite an could be key better performance, which allows new ways engineering formation thin film. In this work, we study effects sulfurization temperature crystallization fil...

The 4 at. % zirconium-doped zinc oxide (ZnO:Zr) films grown by atomic layer deposition (ALD) were annealed at various temperatures ranging from 350 to 950 °C. The structural, electrical, and optical properties of rapid thermal annealing (RTA) treated ZnO:Zr films have been evaluated to find out the stability limit. It was found that the grain size increased at 350 °C and decreased between 350 a...

A novel dualband frequency selective surface (FSS) with both a dielectric substrate and superstrate constructed by double-fourlegged loaded slots (DFLLSs) is investigated, in which each periodic cell consists of two neighboring DFLLSs with different dimensions, its resonant frequencies occur at 183 GHz and 220 GHz. Good selectivity performance can be easily achieved both in lower passband and h...

This paper demonstrates, the effect of dielectric superstrates on the performance of coaxial probe fed circular patch microstrip antenna with and without dielectric superstrates. The antenna can be designed at 2.4 GHz(ISM band) frequency and fabricated on Arlon diclad substrate, whose dielectric constant ( is 2.2. The theoretical formulation has been studied using cavity model analysis. In this...

Atom probe tomography (APT) data acquired from a CAMECA LEAP 4000 XHR for the CdS/CdTe interface for a non-CdCl2 treated CdTe solar cell as well as the mass spectrum of an APT data set including a GB in a CdCl2-treated CdTe solar cell are presented. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) data showing the evolution of sample preparation for APT and scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM) el...
