Abstract: Thin-film solar cells with the $\mathrm{Cu_xIn_xZn_{2-2x}Se_2}$ (CIZS) absorber layer of on glass substrates are created. The given semiconductor material satisfies physical requirements for materials for photo-electric converters, and requirements for depreciation of solar cells production. Preliminary results of researches showed that glass$/\mathrm{Mo/Cu_xIn_xZn_{2-2x}Se_2/CdS/ZnO/Al}$-$\mathrm{Ni}$ thin film solar cells can possess efficiency more than 10%.

Keywords: $\mathrm{Cu_xIn_xZn_{2-2x}Se_2}$, thin films, solar cells, physical characteristics, efficiency.
