Abstract EN
In2Se3 films were utilized as seeding layers in the synthesis of Cu(In,Ga)Se2 films via the spin-coating route.
Selenizing the indium-containing precursors at 400°C resulted in the formation of the hexagonal γ-In2Se3 with the preferred (006) orientation.
Increasing the selenization temperature to 500°C yielded the (300)-oriented γ-In2Se3.
Using the preferred (006)-oriented In2Se3 as seeding layers produced the preferred (112)-oriented Cu(In,Ga)Se2 film because of the crystalline symmetry.
In contrast, the use of the (300)-oriented In2Se3 as seeding layers yielded the (220/204)-oriented Cu(In,Ga)Se2 films.
According to results obtained using SEM and the Hall effect, (112)-oriented Cu(In,Ga)Se2 films had a denser morphology and more favorable electrical properties.
Using the (112)-oriented Cu(In,Ga)Se2 films as the absorber layer in the solar devices resulted in a significant increase in the conversion efficiency.
