S. Duchemin et al., GROWTH OF CUINSE2 BY METALLORGANIC CHEMICAL-VAPOR-DEPOSITION (MOCVD) - NEW COPPER PRECURSOR, Journal of materials science. Materials in electronics, 7(3), 1996, pp. 201-205
Metallorganic chemical vapour deposition (MOCVD) of Cu-In-Se ternary c
ompounds is performed in a horizontal reactor at atmospheric pressure.
A copper precursor has been specially developed for this purpose and
is used around room temperature. It is hexafluoroacetylacetonato coppe
r mixed with trimethylamine (Cu(hfa)(2), NMe(3)). The other source mat
erials are triethylindium (TEIn), trimethylindium (TMIn) and hydrogen
selenide (H2Se). Experimental parameters are detailed and related to t
he film composition. Properties of thin films are also investigated in
the whole range of compositions obtained.
