Preparation of Seleinzed CuInSeS12T Thin Films P-type Conductivity
P형 전기전도도 특성을 갖는 $Selenized CuInse_2$ 박막의 제조
Abstract
Polycrystalline CuInSeS12T thin were prepared by depositing Cu/In layer, which was sequentially sputtered varying the Cu/(Cu+In) mole ratio, on glass substrate and selenizing with selenium metal vapor in a nitrogen atmosphere. Compositional and structural, characterization was carried out by X-ray diffraction (XRD), wavelength-dispersive spectroscopy(WDS), and scanning electron microscope(SEM). Electrical characterization was carried out by the measurements of Hall effect, electrical resistivity. Large indium loss occurs in early stage of the selenization process. The selenized films which had mole ratios larger than 0.28 have chalcopyrite CuInSeS12T phase and these that had less mole ratios have sphalerite phase. The selenized films containing CuS1xTSe phase have Cu-rich CuInSeS12T phase and these that did not contain CuS1xTSe have In-rich CuInSeS12T phase. By optimizing the sputtering conditions,it is possible to fabricate CuInSeS12T thin films which have little secondary phases and an appropriate hole concentration (10S015T ~ 10S016TcmS0-3T) for solar cells.
