Abstract

The Cu2Zn1−xCdxSnS4 quinternary alloy nanostructures with different Cd contents were grown using spin coating technique on porous silicon (63.93 %) substrate. The structural properties of Cu2Zn1−xCdxSnS4/PS were investigated by X-ray diffraction and field emission-scanning electron microscope (FE-SEM). The optical properties studied through photoluminescence technique, indicated that the band gap is shifted as Cd content increases from 1.84 eV at x = 0 to 1.76 eV at x = 1. The electrical characterization of the Ag/n-PS/Cu2Zn1−xCdxSnS4/Ag diode through current to voltage (I–V) characterization shows the highest photo-response of (value if any) at Cu2Zn0.4Cd0.6SnS4 composition.
