  • Abstract
    The authors have fabricated low-defect-level CIS using a novel deposition technology which avoids use of H2Se. Thin-film transistors have been fabricated and are serving as an effective tool in understanding and advancing junction performance. Contamination effects at junction interfaces due to instabilities in the CIS surface and defect generation associated with ZnO deposition have been observed and are limiting ZnO/CIS heterojunction performance in solar cells
