Fabrication and Characterization of CuInSe2 Thin Film Applicable for a Solar Energy Light Absorption Material via a Low Temperature Solid State Reaction by Kuo-Chin Hsu, Yaw-Shyan Fu, Pei-Ying Lin, I-Tseng Tang, Jiunn-Der Liao

“…The morphology of the newly formed CuInSe2 crystalline was close to that of the CuSe reactant particle based on the TEM results, which indicate that the solid state reaction kinetics may be dominated by the In3+ ions diffusion. The CuInSe2 thin film prepared from the solid state reaction did not use the selenide process; its band gap might reach 1.06 eV, which is competent and suitable to be used for a thin film solar cell light absorption layer.…”
