Researchers at Purdue University have developed an alternative method to form selenide films by the direct dissolution metal-chalcogenide in an amine-thiol solvent system. This approach eliminates the need for hydrazine, a toxic and dangerous material, and allows the use of a safer alternative that produces a high-quality film. This technology is useful for those who want to solution processed metal selenides into films for electronic applications, including solar cells. Advantages: - Direct dissolution of metals and metal compounds - Solution processing yielding high quality films - Elimination of hydrazine Applications: - Solution processing of selenide films - Electronics and solar cell applications Technology Validation: This technology has been validated through laboratory testing. |
