Abstract
The copper-deficient solid solutions Cu2-yZnSnS4 (0 < y ≤ 0.45) with a kesterite crystal structure were synthesized and their unit cell parameters at different values of y were determined. Based on magnetometry it was found that the crystal lattice of \( \mathrm{Cu_{2-x}^+Cu_{x/2}^{2+}\square_{x/2}ZnSnS_4} \) (0 < x ≤ 0.30) contains copper in the oxidation states 2+ and 1+. A band at 1.27eV in the cathodoluminescence spectra of the \( \mathrm{Cu_{2-x}^+Cu_{x/2}^{2+}\square_{x/2}ZnSnS_4} \) solid solutions at 78K is due to the \( \mathrm{Cu^{2+}\cdot V_{Cu}} \) associates of defects.
