Cu₂ZnSn(S,Se)₄ (CZTSSe) is a promising thin-film solar cell absorber material. One of its main advantages compared to the well-established Cu(In,Ga)Se₂ (CIGS) is the absence of expensive and environmentally problematic indium and gallium. However, especially the achieved open-circuit voltages are still a problem and the CdS buffer adopted from the CIGS device architecture may not be optimal. In our study we use electromodulated reflectance (ER) to study the band structure of both the CZTSSe absorber and buffer. In this context the impact of post-annealing procedures and the application of alternative buffer layers on the absorber/buffer interface is of particular interest.
