Abstract

The CuInSe2 and Cu(In1-xGax)Se2 absorbing layer films are prepared by selenization after magnetron sputtering. The influence of selenization parameters, including selenized temperature and time, on microstructure of CuInSe2 thin films was studied by X-ray diffractometer (XRD), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) and energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS). Highly crystallized CuInSe2 film could be obtained when selenized at 500°C for 40 min. By using the same selenization technique, high-quality Cu(In1-xGax)Se2 films were also successfully synthesized from two types of CuInGa precursor layers with different structure.
