  "abstract": "We investigate the effect of post-deposition annealing on the defect-controlled electronic response of CdIn2S4 thin films using photocurrent-light-intensity analysis and transient photoconductivity. Relative to our previous annealing study, the present work extracts characteristic energy scales of the effective sub-bandgap states sampled under illumination and relates them to annealing-induced Fermi-level shifts. The determined characteristic energies are in the range of 40-16 meV and systematically evolve as a result of annealing. The measured Lux-Ampere characteristics evolve systematically from linear to sublinear behavior and, within the Rose and Bube formalisms, are consistent with reorganization of inversion-related antisite states and sulfur-vacancy-related defects. In the as-grown and vacuum-annealed films, the results support a distributed contribution of E states. Because the accessible energy window is limited by illumination range and Fermi-level position, the reconstructed profiles are interpreted as effective rather than absolute state distributions. These results refine the defect-state model of CdIn2S4 and clarify how annealing modifies trapping and recombination pathways.",
