Abstract:
The acquisition of new materials for the manufacturing of high efficiency and low-cost photovoltaic devices has currently become a challenge. Thin films of CuInGaSe and CdTe have been widely used in solar cell of second generation, achieving efficiencies about 20 %; however, the low abundance of In and Te as well as the toxicity of Cd is the primary obstacles to their industrial production. Compounds such as Cu2ZnSnS4, Cu2ZnSnSe4 and Cu2ZnSn(SSe)4 have emerged as an important and less costly alternative for efficient energy conversion in the future. In addition, these compounds have the required characteristics to be used as an absorber material in solar cells (band-gap close to 1.4 eV, an absorption coefficient greater than 104 cm-1 and a p-type conductivity). In this work, we present a study of the structural, compositional, morphological and optical properties of Cu2ZnSnS4 thin films deposited by spray pyrolysis technique as well as their dependence on temperature.

Abstract:
ABSTRACTDifferential scanning calorimetry experiments on mixed Cu2-xS, ZnS, and SnS2 precursors were conducted to better understand how Cu2ZnSnS4 (CZTS) and Cu2SnS3 form. The onset temperatures of Cu2SnS3 reactions and CZTS suggest that the ZnS phase may mediate Cu2SnS3 formation at lower temperatures before a final CZTS phase forms. We also found no evidence of a stable Cu2ZnSn3S8 phase. The major diffraction peaks associated with Cu2ZnSnS4, and Cu2SnS3 (overlaps with ZnS, as well) began to grow around 380 °C, although the final reaction to form Cu2ZnSnS4 probably did not occur until higher temperatures were reached. An exothermic reaction was observed corresponding to formation of this phase. There was some variability in the onset temperature for reactions to form Cu2SnS3. At least 5 steps are involved in this reaction and several segments of the reaction had relatively reproducible energies.

Abstract:
We present the first candidate for the realization of a disorder-induced Topological Anderson Insulator in a real material system. High-energy reactive mechanical alloying produces a polymorph of Cu2ZnSnS4 with high cation disorder. Density functional theory calculations show an inverted ordering of bands at the Brillouin zone center for this polymorph, which is in contrast to its ordered phase. Adiabatic continuity arguments establish that this disordered Cu2ZnSnS4 can be connected to the closely related Cu2ZnSnSe4, which was previously predicted to be a 3D topological insulator, while band structure calculations with a slab geometry reveal the presence of robust surface states. This evidence makes a strong case in favor of a novel topological phase. As such, the study opens up a window to understanding and potentially exploiting topological behavior in a rich class of easily-synthesized multinary, disordered compounds.

Abstract:
ABSTRACTQuaternary semiconductors, Cu2ZnSnS4 and Cu2ZnSnSe4 which contain only earth-abundant elements, have been considered as the alternative absorber layers to Cu(In,Ga)Se2 (CIGS) for thin film solar cells although CIGS-based solar cells have achieved efficiencies over 20 %. In this work we report an air-stable route for preparation of Cu2ZnSn(Sx,Se(1-x))4 (CZTSSe) thin film absorbers by a solution process based on the binary and ternary chalcogenide nanoparticle precursors dispersed in organic solvents. The CZTSSe absorber layers were achieved by spin coating of the ink precursors followed by annealing under Ar/Se atmosphere at temperature up to 580°C. We have investigated the influence of the annealing temperature on the reduction or elimination of detrimental secondary phases. X-ray diffraction combined with Raman spectroscopy was utilized to better identify the secondary phases existing in the absorber layers. Solar cells were completed by chemical bath deposited CdS buffer layer followed by sputtered i-ZnO/ZnO: Al bi-layers and evaporated Ni/Al grids.

Abstract:
The most promising materials for the solar radiation converters are such compounds as CdTe and Cu(In, Ga)Se2, CuIn(S, Se)2, CuGa(S, Se)2 solid solutions. However, the uneconomic nature of Cd, Te and the limited supply of In and Ga, as well as their high cost, force researchers to replace In and Ga with the more common elements of II and IV groups, namely Zn and Sn. Apart from that, researchers are now testing such new semiconductor compounds as Cu2ZnSnS4, Cu2ZnSnSe4, and solid solutions on their basis. These compounds have a band gap width (Eg ≈ 1.5 eV) close to optimal for the conversion of solar energy, a high light absorption coefficient (≈ 105cm–1), a long lifetime and a high mobility of charge carriers. Moreover, the interest in such semiconductor heterojunctions as TiO2/Cu2ZnSnS4, which have several advantages over homo-transitions, is steadily growing at present. The paper presents results studies of kinetic properties of Cu2ZnSnSe4 crystals. We fabricated n-TiO2/p-Cu2ZnSnSe4 anisotype heterojunctions, determined their main electrical parameters and built their energy diagram. The Cu2ZnSnSe4 crystals have p-type conductivity and the Hall coefficient practically independent of temperature. The temperature dependence of the electrical conductivity σ for Cu2ZnSnSe4 crystalsis metallic in character, i. e. σ decreases with increasing temperature, which is caused by a decrease in the mobility of the charge carriers with the growth of T. Thermoelectric power for the samples is positive, which also indicates the prevalence of p-type conductivity. In this study, the n-TiO2/p-Cu2ZnSnSe4 heterojunctions were produced by reactive magnetron sputtering of a thin TiO2 film on the Cu2ZnSnSe4 substrate. The energy diagram of the investigated n-TiO2/p-Cu2ZnSnSe4 anisotype heterojunctions was constructed in accordance with the Anderson model, without taking into account the surface electrical states and the dielectric layer, based on the values of the energy parameters of semiconductors determined experimentally and taken from literary sources. The authors have also investigated electrical properties of the heterojunctions: the value of the potential barrier was determined, the value of the series resistance and shunt resistance (respectively, Rs = 8 W and Rsh = 5.8 kW) at room temperature. The dominant mechanisms of current transfer were established: tunneling-recombination mechanism in the voltage range from 0 to 0.3 V, and over-barrier emission and tunneling with inverse displacement in the voltage range from 0.3 to 0.45 V.

Abstract:
Ag and Mn dopants were incorporated into Cu2ZnSnS4 thin film to reduce defects in thin film and improve thin film properties. Sol–gel and spin-coating techniques were employed to deposit Ag and Mn co-doped Cu2ZnSnS4 thin films. The structures, compositions, morphologies, and optical properties of the co-doped thin films were characterized. The experimental results indicate the formation of kesterite structure without Ag and Mn secondary phases. The amount of Ag in the thin films is close to that in the sols. The co-doped Cu2ZnSnS4 thin films have an absorption coefficient of larger than 1.3 × 104 cm−1, a direct optical band gap of 1.54–2.14 eV, and enhanced photoluminescence. The nonradiative recombination in Cu2ZnSnS4 thin film is reduced by Ag and Mn co-doping. The experimental results show that Ag and Mn incorporation can improve the properties of Cu2ZnSnS4 thin film.

Herein, the first paper for preparing Cu2ZnSnS4 film using EDTA as a complex agent by one-step hydrothermal method. The efficient Molybdenum oxide (MoO3) layer was also grown by the same step as preparing the Cu2ZnSnS4 film. The effects of different copper concentrations on the structural, optical, and electrical properties were studied. X-ray diffraction and Raman analyses confirmed the formation of polycrystalline kesterite phase Cu2ZnSnS4 films with preferred orientation along (112) plane and showed that structure property alters with copper concentration: at lower copper concentration single kesterite phase Cu2ZnSnS4 was formed, while with increasing copper concentration kesterite Cu2ZnSnS4 and secondary phases were formed. Field emission scanning electron microscopy revealed a mixture of micro-flower and a thin network of nanoflakes morphology. In addition, it showed as copper concentration changes the grain size of micro-flower and thickness of flakes change. UV-visible analysis showed high and broad absorbance spectra with high absorption coefficient values of more than 104 cm−1 in visible and infrared regions.also, predicted the band gap of single-phase Cu2ZnSnS4 film equal to 1.4 eV. Photoluminescence analysis demonstrated a single emission peak located at 1.55 eV which is quite near to the band gap of kesterite Cu2ZnSnS4. Hall measurement showed the single phase sample is a p-type semiconductor with a resistivity of 5 Ω cm, a charge carrier concentration of 7.5 × 1016 cm−3 and mobility of 16 cm2 Vs−1. Finally, a heterojunction solar cell was made with Mo foil/MoO3/CZTS/Zn0.35Cd0.65S/ZnO/Al configuration. A photovoltaic conversion efficiency of (2.17%) was attained under 100 mW cm−2 with an open-circuit voltage of (0.432) V, short-circuit current density of (13.4) mA cm−2 and a fill factor of (37.5%).

Abstract:
Cd is categorized as a toxic material with restricted use in electronics as there are inherent problems of treating waste and convincing consumers that it is properly sealed inside without any threat of precarious leaks. Apart from toxicity, band-gap of CdS is about 2.40–2.50 eV, which results significant photon loss in short-wavelength range which restricts the overall performance of solar cells. Thin film of Zn(O,S) is a favorable contender to substitute CdS thin film as buffer layer for CuInGaSe2 (CIGS), CuInGa(S,Se)2 (CIGSSe), Cu2ZnSn(S,Se)4 (CZTSSe) Cu2ZnSnSe4 (CZTSe), Cu2ZnSnS4 (CZTS) thin film absorber material based photovoltaic due to it made from earth abundant, low cost, non-toxic materials and its ability to improve the efficiency of chalcogenide and kesterite based photovoltaic due to wider band-gap which results in reduction of absorption loss compared to CdS. In this review, apart from mentioning various deposition technique for Zn(O,S) thin films, changes in various properties i.e., optical, morphological, and opto-electrical properties of Zn(O,S) thin film deposited using various methods utilized for fabricating solar cell based on CIGS, CIGSSe, CZTS, CZTSe and CZTSSe thin films, the material has been evaluated for all the properties of buffer layer (high transparency for incident light, good conduction band lineup with absorber material, low interface recombination, high resistivity and good device stability).

Abstract:
By using the pseudopotential plane-wave method of first principles based on density functional theory, the band structure, density of states and optical properties of Cu2ZnSnS4 under isotropic stress are calculated and analyzed. The results show that Cu2ZnSnS4 is a direct band gap semiconductor under isotropic stress, the lattice is tetragonal, and the band gap of Cu2ZnSnS4 is 0.16 eV at 0 GPa. Stretching the lattice causes the bottom of the conduction band of Cu2ZnSnS4 to move toward lower energies, while the top of the valence band remains unchanged and the band gap gradually narrows. Squeezing the lattice causes the bottom of the conduction band to move toward the high-energy direction, while the top of the valence band moves downward toward the low-energy direction, and the Cu2ZnSnS4 band gap becomes larger. The static permittivity, absorption coefficient, reflectivity, refractive index, electrical conductivity, and energy loss function all decrease when the lattice is stretched, and the above optical parameters increase when the lattice is compressed. When the lattice is stretched, the optical characteristic peaks such as the dielectric function shift to the lower-energy direction, while the optical characteristic peak position shifts to the higher-energy direction when the lattice is compressed.

Abstract:
This study evaluated the electronic structure and optical properties of Fe-doped, Ni-doped, and (Fe,Ni)-co-doped Cu2ZnSnS4 through the first-principles pseudopotential plane-wave method based on density functional theory. The results indicated that Fe single-doping and Ni single-doping Cu2ZnSnS4 can reduce the charge transfer number of adjacent S atoms, enhancing covalent bonding in Fe–S and Ni–S bonds and reducing the bond length, lattice constants a and c, and unit cell volume v. The formation energies for Fe-doping, Ni-doping, and (Fe,Ni)-co-doping were 1.0 eV, 0.58 eV, and 0.78 eV, respectively. Both Fe and Ni-doping introduced 3d electrons near the Fermi level, resulting in new impurity levels and a gradual decrease in the band gap of Cu2ZnSnS4 from 0.16 eV. The conduction band density of Cu2ZnSnS4 was primarilycontributed by Sn 5s, Sn 5p, and a portion of S 3p orbital electrons, whereas the valence band density mainly stemmed from Cu 3d, Sn 5p, and S 3p orbital electrons. Fe and Ni-doping also partly contributed to the 3d layer electrons. In the case of (Fe,Ni)-co-doping, the maximum static dielectric constant was 100.49, and the dielectric peak shifted toward the low-energy direction in the presence of both Fe and Ni. Within the visible light range, Fe-doping, Ni-doping, and (Fe,Ni)-co-doping in Cu2ZnSnS4 exhibited absorption coefficients greater than 104 cm−1, with the maximum absorption coefficient being 1.6 × 105 cm−1 in the case of (Fe,Ni)-co-doping. In the energy range from 1.5 to 6.3 eV, the reflectivity of Cu2ZnSnS4 doped with Fe, Ni, or both was lower than 30%. Notably, a high conductivity peak at 1.9 eV indicated that Cu2ZnSnS4 possesses good photoconductivity in the visible range. Fe-doping and Ni-doping resulted in a slight shift of the conductance peak position towardthe low-energy direction, accompanied by an increase in the peak value.

A solar cell with glass/ITO/ZnS/Cu2ZnSnS4/CdTe/In structure has been fabricated using all-electrodeposited ZnS, Cu2ZnSnS4 and CdTe thin films. The three semiconductor layers were electrodeposited using a two-electrode system for process simplification. The incorporation of a wide bandgap amorphous ZnS as a buffer/window layer to form ITO/ZnS/Cu2ZnSnS4/CdTe/In solar cell resulted in the formation of this 3-layer device structure. This has yielded corresponding improvement in all the solar cell parameters resulting in a conversion efficiency >12% under AM1.5 illumination conditions at room temperature.

In this work, we present a theoretical study on the use of Cu2ZnSn(S,Se)4 quantum wells in Cu2ZnSnS4 solar cells to enhance device efficiency. The role of different well thickness, number, and S/(S + Se) composition values is evaluated. The physical mechanisms governing the optoelectronic parameters are analyzed. The behavior of solar cells based on Cu2ZnSn(S,Se)4 without quantum wells is also considered for comparison. Cu2ZnSn(S,Se)4 quantum wells with a thickness lower than 50 nm present the formation of discretized eigenstates which play a fundamental role in absorption and recombination processes. Results show that well thickness plays a more important role than well number. We found that the use of wells with thicknesses higher than 20 nm allow for better efficiencies than those obtained for a device without nanostructures. A record efficiency of 37.5% is achieved when 36 wells with a width of 50 nm are used, considering an S/(S + Se) well compositional ratio of 0.25.

Abstract:
Alternative photo-sintering techniques for thermal annealing processes are used to improve the morphology, layer properties, and enhance solar cell performance. The fast, nontoxic, low cost, and environmentally friendly characteristics of Cu2ZnSnS4 have led to its consideration as an alternative potential absorber layer in copper indium gallium diselenide thin film solar cells. This work investigates the photo-sintering process for the absorber layer of Cu2ZnSnS4 solar cells. A Cu2ZnSnS4 layer was grown by hot-injection and screen-printing techniques, and the characteristics of the photo-sintered Cu2ZnSnS4 layer were evaluated by X-ray Diffraction, Raman spectroscopy, Energy dispersive X-ray analysis, Ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy, and field emission scanning electron microscopes. Overall, the optimal composition was Cu-poor and Zn-rich, without a secondary phase, estimated optical band-gap energy of approximately 1.6 eV, and enhanced morphology and kesterite crystallization. Using an intensity pulse light technique to the CZTS layer, fabrication of the solar cell device demonstrated successfully, and the efficiency of 1.01% was achieved at 2.96 J/cm2.

Abstract:
Abstract Copper kesterite Cu2ZnSnS4 is a promising photoabsorber material for solar cells and photoelectrochemical (PEC) water splitting. In this article, we will first review the crystallographic/energetic structures of Cu2ZnSnS4 in view of its applications to sunlight conversion devices. Then, historical progress in photovoltaic properties of Cu2ZnSnS4-based solar cells is introduced. Finally, studies on PEC H2 evolution over Cu2ZnSnS4-based photocathodes are reviewed in detail. For realizing efficient PEC H2 evolution, surface modifications with an n-type buffer layer (such as CdS) and a catalytic site (such as Pt nanoparticles) were found to be indispensable. Since these surface-modified photocathodes had poor resistances under an operating bias due to the occurrence of oxidative photocorrosion of the CdS layer and elimination of the Pt catalysts, coverage with a protection layer was required to improve the long-term durability. Moreover, partial or complete substitution of the constituent cations with some cations was proved to be effective for improving PEC properties. Although recent studies showed a rapid increase in PEC properties, there is room for further development of PEC properties by using effective combinations among surface protection(s), defect engineering(s), and band engineering(s).

Abstract:
Cu2ZnSnS4 is a potential compound semiconducting material for solar absorber layer in thin film heterojunction solar cells. Chemical spray pyrolysis technique has been successfully employed to deposit these thin films using two different tin precursors. Thin films were characterized by studying their structural, composition, electrical and optical properties. X-ray diffraction pattern reveals that these films exhibit polycrystalline nature with kesterite structure. Lattice parameters of Cu2ZnSnS4 films are found to be a = b = 0.544 nm and c = 1.084 nm. Optical band gap, evaluated from spectral transmittance data, is close to ideal energy gap (1.5 eV) exhibit highest conversion efficiency. Optical absorption coefficient of these films is ≥ 104 cm-1 . These films exhibit p-type nature. A humble attempt is made to fabricate a typical heterojunction Cu2ZnSnS4 thin film solar cell.

Abstract:
In this study, single-kesterite-phase Cu 2 ZnSnS 4 (CZTS) and Cu 2 ZnSnSe 4 (CZTSe) nanocrystallines have been synthesized by a simple solvothermal route. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), ultraviolet-visible (UV-vis) absorbance and Raman scattering spectroscopy were used to characterize the optical and micro-structure properties of the as-synthesized samples. The bandgap of CZTS could be tuned in a large range by incorporating a few Se atoms. Both the CZTS and CZTSe exhibited the similar temperature dependence of the Raman "A" modes, including a monotonic redshift in peak position and an irregular variation in peak linewidth. Such a behavior might be due to the cumulative effect of thermal expansion and small crystalline sizes.

Abstract:
In recent years, the search for more efficient and environmentally friendly materials to be employed in the next generation of thin film solar cell devices has seen a shift towards hybrid halide perovskites and chalcogenide materials crystallising in the kesterite crystal structure. Prime examples for the latter are Cu2ZnSnS4, Cu2ZnSnSe4, and their solid solution Cu2ZnSn(SxSe1−x)4, where actual devices already demonstrated power conversion efficiencies of about 13 %. However, in their naturally occurring kesterite crystal structure, the so-called Cu-Zn disorder plays an important role and impacts the structural, electronic, and optical properties. To understand the influence of Cu-Zn disorder, we perform first-principles calculations based on density functional theory combined with special quasirandom structures to accurately model the cation disorder. Since the electronic band gaps and derived optical properties are severely underestimated by (semi)local exchange and correlation functionals, supplementary hybrid functional calculations have been performed. Concerning the latter, we additionally employ a recently devised technique to speed up structural relaxations for hybrid functional calculations. Our calculations show that the Cu-Zn disorder leads to a slight increase in the unit cell volume compared to the conventional kesterite structure showing full cation order, and that the band gap gets reduced by about 0.2 eV, which is in very good agreement with earlier experimental and theoretical findings. Our detailed results on structural, electronic, and optical properties will be discussed with respect to available experimental data, and will provide further insights into the atomistic origin of the disorder-induced band gap lowering in these promising kesterite type materials.

Abstract:
Cation substitution is a useful way to improve the properties of semiconducting Cu2ZnSnS4 thin film. In this work, partial Cu and Sn in Cu2ZnSnS4 are substituted by Ag and Ge, respectively. The (Ag,Cu)2Zn(Sn,Ge)S4 thin films were successfully fabricated using vacuum magnetron sputtering and post-sulfurization techniques. The formation of Ag & Ge co-doped Cu2ZnSnS4 structure with secondary phase is proved by XRD and Raman results. The Ag and Ge ratios depend on the composition of Cu-Ag target and the sputtering time of Ge, respectively. The direct optical band gap values of thin films increase with the increase of Ge content. When the sputtering time of Ge is 90 s, the Urbach energy of (Ag,Cu)2Zn(Sn,Ge)S4 thin films reaches the minimum value of 339 meV, revealing the reduced band tail state by Ge incorporation.

Abstract:
The kesterite, Cu2ZnSnS4has a big potential as a future solar material in replacing current material. Although the kesterite and copper indium gallium selenide, CIGS has almost same structure but the constituent elements of kesterite are earth-abundance, cheaper and non-toxic. The chalcogen elements existed inside the kesterite compound are selenium and sulphur, Cu2ZnSnSe4/ Cu2ZnSnS4. Therefore, the structural flexibility of kesterite opens up an avenue to develop light-absorber material with suitable properties and applications. The density functional theory (DFT) has been used to calculate the total energy of Kesterite developed from Material Studio - CASTEP. The general gradient approximation (GGA) has been choosing to treat the exchange-correlation. The structure of kesterite has been developed by determining its space group, I4 and Pc and its coordination of each atom. The previous calculated shown that the energy of its band gap is around 1.0-1.5 eV.

Abstract:
Following the recent classification by the European Commission of some elements as critical raw materials (CRM), there is an increasing interest in the development of CRM-free thin film photovoltaic (PV) technologies, including kesterite materials. Moreover, starting with the performance breakthrough reported by IBM in 2010, the efficiency of kesterite-based solar cells steadily progressed in the following years achieving. Therefore, in recent years, there has been a significant research effort to develop kesterite-based devices. However, despite the large number of theoretical and experimental works, many aspects of the problem have not yet been fully studied. Therefore, the issues considered in the article, especially the behavior of the absorption and photoconductivity spectra of the Cu2ZnSn[S1−xSex]4 system, depending on the S/Se ratio, are extremely important and, at the same time, one of the topical and poorly studied problems. In this work, using quantum-chemical calculations in the framework of density functional theory (DFT), we study the optical properties of semiconductor nanocrystals of kesterite Cu2ZnSnS4 doped with Se. Using the WIEN2k package, the concentration dependences of the optical characteristics of nanocrystals of the Cu2ZnSn[S1−xSex]4 system (x = 0.00, 0.25, 0.50, 0.75 and 1.00) were calculated. It is shown that doping with Se at the S position leads to a noticeable improvement in the photoabsorbing properties of these nanocrystals, as well as their photoconductivity in the IR range. The calculated absorption and extinction spectra, as well as the refractive indices and permittivity of the materials under study, are compared with experimental data known from the literature. The data obtained will significantly enrich the existing knowledge about the materials under study and will contribute to the expansion of the field of application of these compounds in optoelectronic devices. HIGHLIGHTS With an increase in the Se concentration, the absorbing properties and photoconductivity of the nanocrystals of the Cu2ZnSn[S1−xSex]4 system increase The optical band gap narrows with increasing Se/S ratio Curves k(ω) and α (ω) correspond to the maxima of e2 (w) Pure Cu2ZnSnSe4 has the maximum absorption in the IR range GRAPHICAL ABSTRACT

Abstract:
Semiconductor alloy films of Cu2ZnSn1-xGexS4 (CZTGS) were prepared by deposition and sintering of mixed nanoparticle suspensions composed of Cu2ZnSnS4 (CZTS) and Cu2ZnGeS4 (CZGS) nanoparticles with 1-dodecanethiol surfactant. Colloidal CZTS and CZGS nanoparticles were synthesized via the liquid-phase route and used without post-processing treatment. The CZTGS films are crystallized in the form of kesterite structures and form an alloy of CZTS and CZGS without an apparent phase separation. The Sn/Ge ratios in the alloy films were finely controlled by tuning a mixing ratio between CZTS and CZGS nanoparticles. The bandgap energy of the CZTGS film systematically increased from 1.6 to 2.1 eV as the Ge-substitution for Sn in the films proceeded, which indicates the potential of the fabrication method in the manufacture of bandgap-tuned multinary semiconductor thin films.

Abstract:
A simple and hydrazine-free solution-based approach for depositing Cu2ZnSnS4 (CZTS) and Cu2ZnSn(S,Se)4 (CZTSSe) absorber layers is reported. The process involves incorporating metal salts (Cu(CH3COO)2, Zn(CH3COO)2, SnCl2) and thiourea into a single pyridine-based solution, spin-coating a precursor film, and sulfurizing with sulfur powders or selenizing using Se pellets in an inert atmosphere, to form the desired CZTS or CZTSSe films. X-ray diffraction and Raman spectra studies show that kesterite CZTS and CZTSSe are formed after sulfurization and selenization, respectively. The selenized CZTSSe displays higher crystallinity than the sulfurized CZTS. Photovoltaic devices (glass/ Mo /CZTSSe/ CdS /i- ZnO /n- ZnO /A) employing the solution precursor selenized at 500°C have yielded power conversion efficiency of 1.44% under AM 1.5 illumination.
