To gain a deeper understanding regarding transport of carriers and the influence of inhomegeneities, highly spatially, spectrally, and time resolved cathodoluminescence (CL) measurements have been performed on polycrystalline CuInGaSe2 (CIGSe). Absorbers with varying Cu/III-ratios (CGI: 0.73 and 0.86) and therefore varying grades of disorder were investigated.
For this purpose two separate experiments were combined. Carrier diffusion length was derived temperature dependent from spatially resolved CL measurements as was the initial carrier lifetime from time resolved CL experiments.
With decreasing temperature from 300 K to 4.5 K the diffusion length increases from 6 µm to 27 µm (CGI 0.86) and 23 µm (CGI 0.73). Simultaneously, carrier lifetime increases from 20 ns (@ 125 K) to 48 ns (@ 4.5 K) and from 3 ns (@ 125 K) to 37 ns (@ 4.5 K), respectively. The resulting mobilities follow a power law with µ ∝ T−0.86 (CGI 0.86) and µ ∝ T−0.43 (CGI 0.73), which reveals scattering at neutral defects as the dominant mechanism, reaching up to 340,000 cm2/Vs at 4.5 K.
