Cu0.9In1.1Se2.1 is a chalcopyrite-structured compound semiconductor with copper, indium, and selenium—a variant of the CuInSe2 family widely studied for photovoltaic and optoelectronic applications. This material is primarily investigated in research and development contexts for thin-film solar cells, where it offers tunable bandgap, high absorption coefficients, and potential cost advantages over silicon-based alternatives. The slight stoichiometric deviation (excess indium, excess selenium) is typical of optimized formulations aimed at improving defect management and carrier transport in laboratory and pilot-scale device prototypes.
