Abstract

In this paper we investigated thermal and optical properties of an amorphous alloy of the In–Se system. The amorphous InSe9 alloy was produced by mechanical alloying and it was studied using Differential Scanning Calorimetry and microPhotoluminescence spectroscopy techniques, and from them several properties, such as glass transition and crystallization temperatures and energies and the optical gap energy were determined and compared to the values found in other alloys of the In–Se system. This comparison revealed some differences among our alloy produced by mechanical alloying and alloys produced by other techniques, which is a clear indication of the influence of the fabrication technique in their physical properties. The main differences occur in the activation energies associated with the glass transition and crystallization processes and also in the optical gap energy.
