• Ag was incorporated in low-temperature grown CIGS films using Ag precursor layers.
• Ag alloyed CIGS (ACIGS) films exhibit significant recrystallization and Na incorporation.
• The extent of Ag alloying affects the device performance.
• Controlled Ag alloying provides better device performance compared to devices without Ag alloying.
In this work, with Ag alloying, we attempted to improve the microstructure and device performance of low-temperature grown Cu(In,Ga)Se2 (CIGS) solar cells. Ag precursors with various thicknesses are deposited onto Mo prior to the CIGS growth step, and absorber films are formed via a single-step co-evaporation at a substrate temperature of 350 °C. The addition of Ag in low-temperature grown CIGS films induces significant recrystallization and Na incorporation. Through adjustment of the Ag content of the Ag-alloyed CIGS films, an improved device performance is obtained compared with a CIGS solar cell without Ag alloying.
