Why Is CuInSe2 Tolerant to Defects and What Is the Origin of 'Ordered Defect Structures'

Why Is CuInSe2 Tolerant to Defects and What Is the Origin of 'Ordered Defect Structures'

Research output: Contribution to conference › Paper

Abstract

This paper explains both the (1) remarkable electronic passivity of CuInSe2 to its many structural defects, and (2) the occurance of previously noted but unexplained series of structures CuIn5Se8, CuIn3Se5, Cu2In4Se7, etc. in terms of the unusual stability of the charge-compensated defect pair (2V-Cu+In2+Cu).
