For copper-zinc-tin-sulfur film presoma:
The tectal copper-zinc-tin-sulfur film presoma of tin will be laminated with and put into annealing furnace, with mechanical pump from 1 × 10 5it is 0Pa that Pa is evacuated to diaphragm vacuum gauge reading.Continue to take out 5 minutes with timing register timing, to ensure that annealing furnace cleans.
Close mechanical pump angle valve, first logical 99.999% hydrogen sulfide to 2 × 10 in annealing furnace 3pa, more logical 99.999% high pure nitrogen to 4 × 10 4pa.Open heating power supply switch, rise to 530 ~ 600 DEG C with the temperature rise rate of per minute 7.6 DEG C from room temperature, keep 15 ~ 20 minutes at 530 ~ 600 DEG C, then naturally cool to room temperature.By armoured K thermocouple monitoring underlayer temperature in heat-processed.

In high-temperature annealing process, the Sn in tin tectum constantly and H 2s gas reacts and generates SnS 2, SnS 2constantly volatilize, tin tectum is finally removed, and does not affect the light absorbing zone finally obtaining solar cell.
Be cooled to after room temperature until underlayer temperature, open mechanical pump angle valve, annealing furnace is evacuated to 0Pa, close mechanical pump angle valve, logical 99.999% high pure nitrogen to 5 × 10 4pa, then open mechanical pump angle valve and be evacuated to 0Pa, cleaning annealing furnace gas, prevent hydrogen sulfide residual in the lehr.Close mechanical pump angle valve, logical 99.999% high pure nitrogen to 1 × 10 5pa, opens annealing furnace chamber, takes out finished product.
For copper-zinc-tin-selefilm film presoma:

Also high pure nitrogen is passed in high-temperature annealing process, oxidized to avoid being laminated with tin tectal metallic film presoma.Be appreciated that when annealing in MBE cavity, because MBE inside cavity remains high vacuum (< 10 -5pa), the oxidizing gas such as oxygen can not be had in environment to exist, and metallic film precursor can not be oxidized, therefore, can directly anneal in high vacuum MBE, need not pass into the rare gas element of protectiveness.
When adopting coevaporation to prepare metallic film presoma, the step of high temperature annealing is also directly carried out in MBE cavity, and puts into annealing furnace again without the need to being taken out by sample, easy to operate.
Annealing process directly proceeds in MBE cavity.The temperature of Se source stove keeps 210 DEG C, open Se source fender plate, sample table temperature is at the uniform velocity warming up to 550 DEG C with the temperature rise rate of per minute 15 DEG C from 200 DEG C, 23.3 minutes used times, keeps 10 minutes after arriving 550 DEG C, close sample table heating power supply, make sample naturally cooling, when sample temperature closes Se source fender plate lower than when 250 DEG C, annealing terminates, take out sample, namely obtain the CZTSe light absorbing zone of solar cell.
When the non-tight cure of tin tectum of finished surface is volatilized, sample whitens, and diagonal angle resistance only has hundreds of Europe, and when the tin tectum sulfuration of finished surface is not still thoroughly volatilized, color sample is comparatively dark, and diagonal angle resistance is several kilo-ohms.Run into above two kinds of situations, for the preparation of CZTS light absorbing zone, the tectal thickness of tin or adjustment H need be adjusted 2s concentration or adjustment H 2the annealing time of precursor under S atmosphere, to ensure the volatilization completely of Sn in tin tectum.For the preparation of CZTSe light absorbing zone, need the temperature adjusting Se evaporation boat or source stove in annealing furnace, adjust the amount of Se particle in Se evaporation boat simultaneously.
