Abstract

In the present work, effect of Sn doping in CuSe2 thin films is studied by the changes observed in their structural, morphological, optical and electrical properties by XRD, HRTEM, UV–Visible spectroscopy and I–V analysis. The XRD patterns confirm the incorporation of Sn in CuSe2 thin films through binary to ternary phase transformations. HRTEM images depict the layered formation of thin films and the SAED patterns supports the XRD data. The addition of Sn in CuSe2 tunes its band gap from 1.54 to 1.34 eV. Doping of Sn decreases the value of conductivity. CuSe2 thin films with the Sn ratio of 1 exhibit highly desirable optical and electrical properties.
