Abstract
Enargite Cu 3 AsS 4 is a promising absorber for thin-film solar cells but little is known about its optoelectronic properties. Here, we present photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopy, time-resolved terahertz spectroscopy (TRTS), time-resolved photoluminescence (TRPL) spectroscopy, and cyclic voltammetry (CV) measurements of enargite thin films. The results indicate promising defect characteristics with minority carrier lifetimes on the order of ns, and band alignments suggest that buffer layers besides CdS must be developed to achieve high efficiency Cu 3 AsS 4 solar cells.
