We fabricated solar cells using rare-metal-free ZnSnP 2 bulk crystals prepared by Sn flux method. It was clarified that the aqua regia etching of ZnSnP 2 bulk crystals before CBD process removed the defect layer in the crystal formed by mechanical polishing. Subsequently, we report that the conversion efficiency of approximately 2 % was achieved with the structure of Al/AZO/ZnO/CdS/ZnSnP 2 /Cu, where the values of Jsc, Voc and FF were 8.2 mA cm−2, 0.452 V and 0.533, respectively. Voc value was largely low, considering the bandgap value of ZnSnP 2 , ~1.6 e V. In order to improve the high conversion efficiency, the optimization of buffer layer material is considered to be essential in the viewpoint of the band alignment.
