1. Introduction

In recent years, the energy crisis has forced people to ﬁnd clean

and renewable energy. Solar energy is one of the most ideal renew-

able energy. Solar cells can convert sunlight to electricity. How-

ever, the cost of traditional crystalline silicon solar cells is high.

As a result, the low-cost and novel solar cell materials such as

Cu(In,Ga)(S,Se)

,Cu

ZnSnS

(CZTS), and Cu

FeSnS

, are attracting

widespread interest. Particularly, CZTS has garnered considerable

interest, which contains earth-abundant, low-cost, and nontoxic

elements and retain the similar structure to Cu(In,Ga)(S,Se)

. More-

over, Cu

ZnSnS

has an optical band gap (1.5 eV) and a large

absorption coefﬁcient (>10

1

) [1]. Furthermore, according to

the Shockley–Queisser photon balance calculations, the theoretical

limit for Cu

ZnSnS

thin ﬁlm solar cells is nearly 32.2% [2].

Various methods have been used to prepare Cu

ZnSnS

thin

ﬁlms for solar cells. Shin et al. [3] reported that 8.4% efﬁciency Cu

ZnSnS

solar cell was fabricated by co-evaporation deposition

method. However, the deposition technique generally requires

high vacuum system increasing preparation cost. In contrast,

non-vacuum based approaches can provide low-cost routes to

ZnSnS

solar cells. These non-vacuum based approaches

include spray pyrolysis [4], electrodeposition [5], sol–gel method

[6], hydrazine-based processing [7], nanocrystals-based approach

[8], etc. Among these non-vacuum methods, Wang et al. [7] fabri-

cated Cu

ZnSn(S,Se)

thin ﬁlm solar cells with 12.6% by hydrazine-

based processing. However, hydrazine is highly toxic and reactive,

and requires extreme caution during handling and storage. Xin

et al. [8] reported a molecular precursor approach using non-toxic

solvent DMSO to prepare CZTS thin ﬁlm and resulting in a solar cell

with 8.3% efﬁciency. Recently, nanocrystals-based approach has

obtained more and more attention, due to its many advantages.

This method can easily to fabricate solar cells at a large scale com-

bined with roll-to-roll, printing, and casting. Moreover, this

method can control phase formation because it enables phase for-

mation to occur prior to ﬁlm deposition. Miskin et al. [9] prepared

9% efﬁciency Cu

ZnSn(S,Se)

solar cells from selenized nanoparti-

cles inks. This method could avoid using high toxic hydrazine,

but is required to prepare high quality Cu

ZnSnS

nanoparticles.

At present, the main methods to prepare Cu

ZnSnS

nanoparticles

include hot injection [10], solvothermal [11], mechanochemical

[12], and microwave irradiation [13]. Among these methods,

microwave irradiation offers great advantages such as high reac-

tion rate, higher yield and better reproducibility of product.

At present, many researchers have indicated that Se incorpora-

tion is an effective way to tailor the band gap and improve solar

cells efﬁciency [14]. However, the approaches to tune band gap
