This study investigates the potential of a quaternary compound semiconductor to be realized as the absorber layer for third-generation intermediate band solar cells (IBSCs). In this work, the effects of Cr doping into Cu2ZnSnS4 (CZTS) host material to form intermediate band within the forbidden band...
