Growth of CuInGaSe2 Films by RF Sputtering Using CuInGaSe2 Single Phase Target

Article Preview

Abstract:

CuIn0.8Ga0.2Se2 thin film is grown at room temperature by RF sputtering using high quality of CuIn0.8Ga0.2Se2 single phase target. A (112) diffraction peak is dominant with no secondary phases such as selenide materials in the X-ray diffraction pattern. A flat and homogeneous surface can be obtained in the sample.
