The solution route synthesis of the Cu0.5Ag1.5InSe3 compound for thermoelectric applications

Cu0.5Ag1.5InSe3 compound which is used as a thermoelectric material was successfully synthesized by a simple solution route. The metal ions were reduced simultaneously under alkaline conditions by NaBH4. The types of solvent, reaction temperature, indium precursors, and reaction time were studied as...
