Cu2SnSe3 thin films were prepared by single-step D.C. sputtering at 100-400 degrees C for 3 h using targets composed of Cu2Se and SnSe2 in three different ratios of 2/1 (target A), 1.8/1 (target B), and 1.6/1 (target C). The advantages of self-synthesized SnSe2 instead of commercially available SnSe for depositing Cu2SnSe3 thin films were demonstrated. Effects of target composition and substrate temperature on the properties of Cu2SnSe3 thin films were investigated. Structure, surface morphology, composition, electrical and optical properties at different process conditions were measured. The 400 degrees C-sputtered films obtained from target B display with direct band gap of 0.76 eV, electrical resistivity of 0.12 Omega cm, absorption coefficient of 10(4)-10(5) cm(-1), carrier concentration of similar to 1.8 x 10(19) cm(-3), and electrical mobility of 2.9 cm(2)/V s.
