In₁.₉Cu₀.₁Se₂.₉ is a ternary chalcogenide semiconductor composed of indium, copper, and selenium—a variation of indium selenide with partial copper substitution. This material is primarily of research interest for thermoelectric and photovoltaic applications, where the copper doping modifies the electronic structure and charge carrier concentration compared to binary InSe. The copper addition is typically explored to enhance thermoelectric efficiency, tune bandgap for solar energy conversion, or improve electrical transport properties in next-generation energy conversion devices.
