Abstract：

High　performances　of　Cu2ZnSn(S,Se)4　(CZTSSe)　solar　cells　are　heavily　influenced　by　the　quality　of　heterojunctions.　Herein,　an　oxygen　(O)　doping　of　CZTSSe/CdS　heterojunction　is　performed　to　suppress　the　formation　of　the　defects　by　an　ultraviolet　ozone　(UV-O3)　treatment　for　the　efficient　flexible　CZTSSe　solar　cells.　The　introduction　of　O　reduces　the　non-radiative　recombination　and　increases　the　carrier　concentration　of　the　CdS　films.　Furthermore,　the　defect　density　of　the　CdS　film　has　been　reduced　from　8.24　×　1016　to　2.91　×　1016　cm−3　by　the　O-doping.　The　results　indicate　that　the　electron　transport　is　effectively　promoted　due　to　the　decreased　conduction　band　offset　(CBO)　at　the　heterojunction　interface.　As　a　result,　the　champion　flexible　CZTSSe　solar　cell　achieves　a　power　conversion　efficiency　(PCE)　of　11.21%,　with　a　significantly　improved　short　circuit　current　density.　The　study　for　improving　the　CZTSSe/CdS　heterojunction　through　O-doping　treatment　provides　a　new　insight　for　enhancing　the　PCE　of　the　flexible　CZTSSe　solar　cells.　©　2025　Science　Press
