Abstract

Two-step growth method was used for CuInGaSe2,(CIGS) absorption layer in this study. The layer was first deposited by thermal evaporator to use indium and gallium sauces at a vacuum of 5 × 10-6 torr and secondly, the deposited thin film was enclosed in a quartz cartridge for the first selenization. The second selenization process was coated by copper and then annealed again in a furnace. Finding best precursor for thin film solar cells was analyzed by scanning electron microscope (SEM), X-ray diffraction analyzer (XRD) and energy dispersive spectrometer (EDS).
