• CIGS absorbers and processes (2010, background): “introduced by diffusion from Na-compound precursor layers, such as Na2Se or NaF, deposited during or prior to CIGS growth [42,45], or after CIGS growth in an annealing process [46].”
• Progress in thin film CIGS photovoltaics – Research and development, manufacturing, and applications (2017, methodology): “Such a PDT treatment was originally found to be the most beneficial method to add Na onto CIGS grown at low-temperature on plastic substrate [57], because it allows separating the influence of Na on CIGS film growth from its beneficial effect on electronic properties.”
• Ink formulation and low‐temperature incorporation of sodium to yield 12% efficient Cu(In,Ga)(S,Se)2 solar cells from sulfide nanocrystal inks (2013, background): “concentration with NaCl treatment is surprising as the addition of Na has correlated to increased carrier concentrations in numerous reports [19,21].”
