[edit]Formula
[edit]Oddly enough, there's a book that gives it without iron . Have mörser, will travel (talk) 02:39, 20 October 2011 (UTC)
Apparently Cu2ZnSnS4 and Cu2ZnSnSe4 are both called "kersterites" as well. Have mörser, will travel (talk) 02:55, 20 October 2011 (UTC)
CZTS is an umbrella name that encompasses the Cu2ZnSn(S,Se)4 range of materials. This means that the S/Se can be interchanged freely, since they're both from Group VI of the periodic table. Kesterite is the name of their crystal structures, which is named after the mineral kesterite. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jethrotan (talk • contribs) 21:46, 29 October 2012 (UTC)
CZTS
[edit]gives a different formula for CZTS, namely Cu2ZnSn(Se,S)4. Have mörser, will travel (talk) 02:43, 20 October 2011 (UTC)
In any case, CZTS appears to refer to an artificially grown crystal . Have mörser, will travel (talk) 02:51, 20 October 2011 (UTC)
Ideally
[edit]There should probably be 3 articles: Kesterite on the mineral, CZTS and CZTSe on the artificial compounds. The issue that complicates the picture is that CZTS and CZTSe are sometimes alloyed in applications. Have mörser, will travel (talk) 08:24, 20 October 2011 (UTC)
However CZTS and (more horribly) CZTSe are also called kesterite, e.g. in the NREL paper, p.2. So having all of them on the same wiki page is probably okay for now. Have mörser, will travel (talk) 08:39, 20 October 2011 (UTC)
