Abstract
Cu- and In-rich CuIn(Ga)Se-2 thin films are investigated by magneto-op tical spectroscopy in absorption and emission. These experiments revea l that the free-exciton transition is at 1.044 eV (1.5 K). The exciton ic band gap was found to decrease with a slope of 7 meV/100 K between 100 and 300 K. Donor-acceptor pair recombinations located at 0.96 and 0.90 eV were found to originate from moderately deep donors in connect ion with shallow effective mass-like accepters, and deep accepters, re spectively.
