The extra amount of Se was added into the ink to help reduction of the oxide and solid Se fountain was used to provide Se atmosphere during the selenization progress. The influence of same factors was investigated, such as the time of reduction in H2, the time of selenization and the Se vapor pressure. The selenizaion, processed at 550 ℃ for 60 min with the Se vapor pressure at 1.90 kPa, resulted in high quality CulnSe2 layer with very good chemical composition.展开更多

CulnSe2 films were compacted to improve surface morphology. The films were characterized by X-ray diffractometry (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS). It is indicated that ideal stoichiometrie CulnSe2 films can be obtained by the selenization of Cu-In precursor deposited at a current density of 20 mA/cm^2. Single-phase CulnSe2 is formed in the selenization proeess, and it exhibits preferred orientation along the (112) plane. The CulnSe2 films with smooth surface can be obtained under the pressure of 500 MPa at 60℃.展开更多

CulnSe2 thin films were successfully prepared by precursor layers, which were coated using these pastes, and were annealed in a H2 atmosphere. The pastes were tested by laser particle diameter analyzer, simultaneous thermogravimetric and differential thermal analysis instruments (TG-DTA), and X-ray diffractometry (XRD). Selenized films were characterized by XRD, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS). The results indicate that chalcopyrite CuInSe2 is formed at 180℃ and the crystallinity of this phase is improved as the temperature rises. All the CuInSe2 thin films, which were annealed at various temperatures, exhibit the preferred orientation along the (112) plane. The compression of precursor layers before selenization step is one of the most essential factors for the preparation of perfect CuInSe2 thin films.展开更多

The films were characterized by X-ray diffractometry (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS). The results indicate that single-phase CulnSe2 is formed at 250℃ and its crystallinity of this phase is improved as the annealing temperature rises. The losses of In occur in selenization process. The dense CulnSe2 film with comparatively smooth surface can be obtained by compaction under the pressure of 200 MPa.展开更多
