Thermodynamic Assessment of the Cu-In-Se System and Application to Thin Film Photovoltaics

Research output: Contribution to conference › Paper

Abstract

A critical assessment of the thermochemical and phase diagram data for the Cu-In-Se system has been initiated. This report includes assessment of the Se unary, In-Se binary and Cu-Se binary systems. Based on these assessments and a previously published one for the Cu-In system a preliminary evaluation of the Cu/sub 2/ SeIn /sub 2/ Se /sub 3/ pseudobinary phase diagram is proposed. The results ofthese analyses were applied to the calculation of the flux from a selenium effusion cell used for depositing CIS films and to the prediction of crystallization pathways during annealing of CIS precursor films.
