Effects of Mn and Co Doping on the Electronic Structure and Optical Properties of Cu<sub>2</sub>ZnSnS<sub>4</sub>

The electronic structures and optical properties of Mn-doped, Co-doped, and (Mn,Co)-co-doped Cu<sub>2</sub>ZnSnS<sub>4</sub> were calculated and analyzed using the first-principles pseudopotential plane-wave approach. The results indicate that doping with Mn or Co increases t...
