Abstract

The invention belongs to the new energy technique field of photoelectric material, in particular to a process for preparing a copper indium selenide sputtering target. A Cu2Se powder and an In2Se3 powder prepared or purchased in the market are mixed in a planetary ball mill for ball milling and then cold-press molding so as to make a biscuit with mixed material of Cu2Se and In2Se3, the biscuit is positioned in a closed vacuum sintering furnace, and is sintered and cooled for de-molding in the H2 protective atmosphere, thereby obtaining the copper indium selenide target. The produced target has uniform copper indium selenide phase, and the relative density reaches over 95 percent. The process has the advantages of simple process, high efficiency, low cost and good stability, and conveniently and stably guarantees the preparation process of copper indium selenide absorption layer films.
