摘要
Optical experiments were carried out on In-rich CuIn(Ga)Se-2 thin films prepared by rapid thermal processing (RTP). The In-rich layers show a single, broad and structurless luminescence band in the spectral range from 0.8 eV to 1.05 eV. The excitation power dependence and the temperature dependence of the recombination are well described by switching over from tail-impurity recombination to band-impurity recombination in a highly compensated semiconductor. The impurity concentrations are determined to be in the 10(18) cm(-3) range, while the carrier concentrations at room temperature are about 10(16) cm(-3).
