Synthesis and characterization of CuGaSe2 nanoparticles prepared by a microwave method
Copper gallium diselenide (CuGaSe2) nanopowder is a p-type semiconductor potentially for use as a thermoelectric material. Nanoparticles of CuGaSe2 were synthesized by a microwave method using Cu(NO 3)2 • 3H2O, Ga2(SO 4)3 and SeO2as precursors and ethylene glycol as a solvent. A preparative paramete...
