    Changes in gamma attenuation behaviour of sol-gel derived CIGS thin film irradiated using Co-60 radioisotope
    (Elsevier Science Sa, 2017) Canci Matur, Utku; Baydoğan, Nilgün
    Copper indium gallium (di) selenide-Cu(In, Ga)Se-2 (CIGS) thin films were fabricated on soda-lime silicate glass substrates using a layer-by-layer sol-gel dip-coating method. The irradiation procedure was handled using a certified Co-60 radioisotope at two different absorbed dose levels (at 0,03 and 0,05 Gray (Gy)) to examine the enhancements of optical and electrical properties of the CIGS thin films. Cs-137 (with 0,662 MeV) and Co-60 (with similar to 1,25 MeV) radioisotopes were used to evaluate the effect of the absorbed dose on CIGS thin films with different thicknesses by the gamma transmission technique. The irradiated CIGS thin films exhibited an improved optical band gap and electrical resistivity at the optimal layer thickness. This improvement occurs due to the enhancement of crystalline properties in comparison with those of non-irradiated CIGS thin films. The CIGS thin film of similar to 300 nm (11 layers) thickness was suitable for comparing changes in the linear attenuation coefficient after the irradiation process at two different absorbed dose levels. In the experiments, the gamma transmission technique was utilized to investigate the gamma attenuation properties of non-irradiated and irradiated CIGS thin films at different thicknesses against Cs-137 (with 0,662 MeV) and Co-60 (with similar to 1,25 MeV) gamma radioisotope sources. The irradiation process and the increase of thickness of CIGS thin films caused a higher linear attenuation coefficient, higher absorption and improvement in electrical conductivity. These results demonstrate the suitability of these materials for solar cell applications in aerospace technology, especially for high-altitude flight operations.

    Experimental study and numerical simulation for the development of critical performance parameters of eco-friendly Cu2ZnSnS4-based solar cells
    (Elsevier Science Ltd, 2023) Belarbi, Faiza; Canci Matur, Utku; Tamin, C.; Rahal, Wassila Leila; Benghabrit, S.; Baydoğan, Nilgün; Adnane, Mohamed
    This work aims to study the basic Characteristics of CZTS thin films produced by chemical solution process in addition to a numerical study of the CZTS-based solar cells. In this context, eco-friendly and cost effective thin films of CZTS were coated on glass substrates by sol-gel dip-coating method. This method is used to grow crystalline CZTS thin films without sulfidation processes. The structural and optical properties have been carried out by X-ray Diffraction (XRD) and UV/Visible spectroscopy. The oxidation states of CZTS thin film have been studied by, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy XPS analysis. The performance of CZTS solar cells has been investigated with the simulator SCAPS-1 D. The impact of different parameters like the CZTS absorber layer thickness, the carrier doping density and the operation temperature has been studied to get better understanding of the properties of our cells.
