In this work, Cu0.5Ag0.5InSe2 (CAIS) thin film samples were prepared by thermal evaporation of Cu, Ag, InSe and Se evaporants sequentially on glass substrates. Following the deposition, annealing processes were applied at different temperatures. The as-grown and annealed CAIS samples were nearly stoichiometric in the detection limit of the compositional measurement. The x-ray diffraction (XRD) measurements revealed that they were in polycrystalline structure with a preferred orientation along the (112) direction. Moreoever, the crystallinity of the films improved with increasing annealing temperature. According to the results of Raman measurements, the highest Raman intensity was found in the A(1) mode which is directly proportional to the crystallinity of the samples. The surface properties of the thin films were analyzed by means of scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and atomic force microscopy (AFM). These results showed that there was a Se agglomeration on the deposited film surfaces and with annealing processes segregation effects were observed on the surface of the annealed samples. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) measurements were carried out to get information about surface and near-surface properties of the films. The results from the surface and depth surface analyses of the films were found to be in agreement with the energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) analysis.

Deposition of CZTSe thin films and illumination effects on the device properties of Ag/n-Si/p-CZTSe/In heterostructure
Bayrakli, O.; Terlemezoğlu, Makbule; GULLU, H. H.; Parlak, Mehmet (2017-06-30)
Characterization of Cu2ZnSnSe4 (CZTSe) thin films deposited by thermal evaporation sequentially from the pure elemental sources and in-situ post annealing was carried out at 400 C under Se evaporation atmosphere. Another annealing process was applied in nitrogen atmosphere at 450 degrees C to get poly-crystalline monophase CZTSe film structure. XRD analysis together with Raman spectroscopy was used to determine the structural properties. Spectral optical absorption coefficient evaluated from transmission da...
Device behavior of an In/p-Ag(Ga,In)Te-2/n-Si/Ag heterojunction diode
Coskun, EMRE; Gullu, H. H.; CANDAN, İDRİS; Bayrakli, O.; Parlak, Mehmet; Ercelebi, C. (2015-06-01)
In this work, p-(Ag-Ga-In-Te) polycrystalline thin films were deposited on soda-lime glass and n-type Si substrates by e-beam evaporation of AgGa0.5In0.5Te2 crystalline powder and the thermal evaporation of Ag powder, sequentially in the same chamber. The carrier concentration and mobility of the Ag-Ga-In-Te (AGIT) film were determined as 5.82 x 10(15) cm(-3) and 13.81 cm(2)/(V s) as a result of Hall Effect measurement. The optical analysis indicated that the band gap values of the samples were around 1.58 ...
Structural and optical properties of thermally evaporated Ga-In-Se thin films
IŞIK, MEHMET; Güllü, Hasan Hüseyin (2014-05-30)
In this paper, structural and optical properties of Ga-In-Se (GIS) thin films deposited by thermal evaporation technique have been investigated. The effect of annealing was also studied for samples annealed at temperatures between 300 degrees C and 500 degrees C. X-ray diffraction, energy dispersive X-ray analysis and scanning electron microscopy have been used for structural characterization. It was reported that increase of annealing temperature results with better crystallization and chemical composition...
Thickness effects in hydrogen sorption of Mg/Pd thin films
Gharavi, Ayshe G.; Akyildiz, Hasan; Öztürk, Tayfur (2013-12-15)
Mg thin films with various thicknesses ranging from 50 to 1000 nm capped with Pd have been prepared by thermal evaporation and their hydrogen sorption properties were examined following the electrical resistance change. The study showed that the hydrogenation and dehydrogenation temperatures correlate with the film thickness, thinner films reacting with hydrogen at reduced temperatures. It is concluded that films thinner than 200 nm react fully with hydrogen, while a considerable portion of the thicker film...
Fabrication of CdSexTe1-x thin films by sequential growth using double sources
Demir, Medine; Terlemezoglu, M.; Parlak, Mehmet (2021-10-15)
CdSexTe(1-x) (CST) ternary thin films were fabricated by stacking thermally evaporated CdSe and electron beam evaporated CdTe layers. The final structure was achieved in a stoichiometric form of approximately Cd:Se:Te = 50:25:25. The post-annealing processes at 300, 400, and 450 °C were applied to trigger the compound formation of CST thin films. The X-ray diffraction (XRD) profiles revealed that CdTe and CdSe have major peaks at 23.9° and 25.5° corresponds to (111) direction in cubic zinc-blend structure. ...
