Solar cells based on Cu₂ZnSn(S,Se)₄ (CZTSSe) are promising since they only comprise environmentally friendly and earth-abundant elements. However, their device architecture which has been adopted from Cu(In,Ga)Se₂ (CIGS) is not yet optimal. This holds in particular for the CdS buffer. In this contribution we study the fabrication of alternative buffer layers, especially that of (Cd,Zn)S and their impact on the performance of CZTSSe solar cells.
