Cu2ZnSnSe4 based kesterites offers a wide range of promising absorber materials for photovoltaics, but the record efficiency has only reached 12.6% yet. One of the limiting factors seems to be the formation of secondary phases throughout the preparation process. Therefore we used X-ray absorption near edge structure spectroscopy for an element specific detection of secondary phases via linear combination fitting. Kesterite powder samples created by solid state reaction with varying compositions were studied, to better understand the phase formation depending on the initial material composition. Furthermore, kesterite solar cells with and without small amounts of Ge were studied for different stages of preparation. The presence of Ge greatly improves the device performance and a detailed phase analysis will help to understand the underlying absorber formation mechanisms.
