First-Principles Study on Influences of Crystal Structure and Orientation on Band Offsets at the CdS/Cu2ZnSnS4 Interface

Cu2ZnSnS4 (CZTS) has attracted much attention recently as an absorber layer material in a heterojunction solar cell. Using the first-principles method, we calculate the band offsets for the CdS/CZTS heterojunction. The valence band offset is 1.2 eV for the (001) CdS/CZTS heterointerface and 1.0 eV...
