As-deposited and annealed Cu2ZnSnS4 (CZTS) thin films have been synthesized onto Mo coated glass substrates at different deposition times using pulsed laser deposition (PLD) technique. The effect of deposition time (film thickness) and annealing onto the structural, morphological, compositional and optical properties of CZTS thin films have been investigated. The polycrystalline CZTS thin films with tetragonal crystal structure have been observed from structural analysis. FESEM and AFM images show the smooth, uniform, homogeneous and densely packed grains and increase in the grain size after annealing. The internal quantitative analysis has been carried out by XPS study which confirms the stoichiometry of the films. The optical band gap of CZTS films grown by PLD is about 1.54 eV, which suggests that CZTS films can be useful as an absorber layer in thin film solar cells. Device performance for deposited CZTS films has been studied.
