## Description

- description: As a crucial parameter in the determination of thermal conductivity,
    the heat capacity of Cu2+xZn1-xSnS4 (CZTS) has been investigated and analyzed
    in detail from 2 to 773 K. The effects of the Cu-Zn stoichiometric ratio and phase
    transition have been quantified and correlated with entropy variation. We confirm
    that the compounds follow the Dulong-Petit approximation above the Debye temperature
    θD and solve literature discrepancies on CZTS. The in-depth low-temperature heat
    capacity analysis revealed an approximate image of the energy dependance of the
    phonon density of state in kesterite which agrees with results of first-principles
    calculations.
