Abstract
A method for producing a compound semiconductor layer comprises dissolving a metal feedstock comprising at least one of a group I-B element and a group III-B element, in a metal state, in a mixed solvent comprising an organic compound containing a chalcogen element and a Lewis base organic compound to produce a solution for forming a semiconductor; forming a coat using the solution for forming a semiconductor; and heat-treating the coat.
Claims11
A method for producing a compound semiconductor, comprising:
- producing a solution for forming a semiconductor by dissolving a metal feedstock comprising at least one of a group I-B element and a group III-B element, in a metal state, in a mixed solvent comprising an organic compound containing a chalcogen element and a Lewis base organic compound;
- producing a coat using the solution for forming a semiconductor;
- and
- heat-treating the coat.
A method for manufacturing a photoelectric conversion device, comprising:
- dissolving a metal feedstock comprising at least one of a group I-B element and a group III-B element, in a metal state, in a mixed solvent comprising an organic compound containing a chalcogen element and a Lewis base organic compound to produce a solution for forming a semiconductor;
- applying the solution for forming a semiconductor onto an electrode to produce a coat;
- heat-treating the coat to form a compound semiconductor;
- and
- producing a second semiconductor of a conductivity type different from a conductivity type of the compound semiconductor on the compound semiconductor.
A solution for forming a semiconductor, comprising a mixed solvent comprising an organic compound containing a chalcogen element and a Lewis base organic compound, and a metal feedstock comprising at least one of a group I-B element and a group III-B element, the metal feedstock being dissolved in the mixed solvent in a metal state.
