Abstract

Single phase $CuInS_2$ thin film with a highest diffraction peak (112) at a diffraction angle ($2\Theta$) of $27.7^{\circ}$ was well made by SEL method at annealing temperature of $250^{\circ}C$ and annealing hour of 60 min in vacuum of $10^{-3}$ Torr or in S ambience for an hour. And the peak of diffraction intensity at miller index (112) of $CuInS_2$ thin film annealed in S ambience was shown a little higher about 11 % than in only vacuum. Single phase $CuInS_2$ thin films were appeared from 0.85 to 1.26 of Cu/In composition ratio and sulfur composition ratios of $CuInS_2$ thin films fabricated in S ambience were all over 50 atom%. Also when $CuInS_2$ composition ratio was 1.03, $CuInS_2$ thin film with chalcopyrite structure had the highest XRD peak (112). The largest lattice constant of a and grain size of $CuInS_2$ thin film in S ambience was 5.63 ${\AA}$ and 1.2 ${\mu}m$ respectively. And the films in S ambience were all p-conduction type with resistivities of around $10^{-1}{\Omega}cm$.
