Cu(In(1-x)Ga(x))S2 nanocrystals and films: low-temperature synthesis with size and composition control

Nanoscale. 2013 Jun 7;5(11):4706-10. doi: 10.1039/c3nr00264k. Epub 2013 May 7.

Abstract

We demonstrate a single-step X-ray irradiation process that yields high-quality Cu(In1-xGax)S2 nanocrystals in colloidal solutions, with complete control of size and composition. Thin films produced by drop-casting exhibit high-quality photoresponse, confirming that our process is suitable for microelectronics applications.
