CIS (Copper Indium Selenide CuInSe2) Sputtering Targets

Copper indium selenide (CIS) is another thin-film semiconductor material that is used in the fabrication of high-performance solar cells. It has a direct bandgap and a high optical absorption coefficient, making it an efficient light-absorbing material for photovoltaic applications. CIS thin films can be deposited using techniques like sputtering or co-evaporation, similar to the CIGS material system. While CIS has slightly lower efficiency compared to CIGS, it is a more cost-effective alternative due to the reduced use of gallium. The continued development of CIS-based solar cell technology, along with advancements in device design and manufacturing processes, has contributed to its commercial viability and widespread adoption in the solar energy industry.
