Abstract

CuInSe$_2$ films have been prepared by selenium vapor annealing of sputtered Cu/In layer. The properties of selenized CuInSe$_2$films have been studied as a function of selenization temperature for two sputtered thicknesses. A large indium loss occurs in the sputtered Cu/In layer during the selenization. The indium loss with the selenization temperature is confirmed by the increase in the amount of CuxSe phase at lower temperature and the decrease in the crystallinity of chalocpyrite CuInSe$_2$phase at higher temperature. The variations of the electrical properties in the selenized films with the selenization conditions are due primarily to the variation of hole concentration. The variation of the hole concentration can be explanined by the indium loss away the sputtered Cu/In layer.
