Abstract
Compositional characterization of CuInSe2 thin films by Raman scattering spectroscopy for solar cell applications was proposed. It was shown that Raman scattering spectroscopy is a promising method for the characterization of CuInSe2 film composition (especially Cu/In ratio). It was also found by using Raman scattering spectroscopy that the In-rich CuInSe2 on Cu-rich p+-CuInSe2 bilayer structure gives high-photovoltaic performance, and a conversion efficiency of 8.16% for CdS/CuInSe2 solar cells was achieved by optimizing such a bilayer structure.Keywords
