Preparation and properties of copper indium diselenide CuInSe2

Abstract

Polycrystalline alloys in the Cu-In-Se ternary system of specified compositions are synthesized using an original silica apparatus designed by the authors and the temperature-time conditions also specially chosen for this synthesis. The region of existence of CuInSe 2 -based solid solutions in the Cu-In-Se system, the temperature of the polymorphic transformation of the CuInSe 2 compound from the chalcopyrite modification into the sphalerite modification, and the melting temperature of the sphalerite modification are determined experimentally.

Synthesis and physical properties of solar material Cu1+xIn1‐xSe2

“…Unlike the reported reaction temperatures (1273–1423 K) in the literature 25–27, the CuInSe 2 ‐based compounds were prepared by a relatively lower temperature (1073 K) reaction process. We investigated crystal structure, thermal stability, optical absorbance, electrical conductivity, and Seebeck coefficient of Cu doped Cu 1+ x In 1‐ x Se 2 bulk material to shed some light on intrinsic nature of the material.…”

“…The present study mainly focuses on the relationship between the structural and physical properties of the Li-doped Cu 1-x Li x InSe 2 (x = 0-0.4) bulk material. In this study, the Li-doped samples were prepared by solid state reaction in a relatively low temperature (873 K) than the reported reaction temperatures (1273-1423 K) [14][15] . And the crystal structure, electrical resistivity and optical characteristics are investigated to understand the improvement of photoelectrical performance.…”
