InCuSnSe4
metal· JVASP-110243· InCuSnSe4
InCuSnSe4 is a quaternary semiconductor compound combining indium, copper, tin, and selenium elements, belonging to the chalcogenide family of materials. This is a research-stage compound investigated primarily for photovoltaic and thermoelectric applications, where its tunable bandgap and potential for efficient charge carrier transport offer advantages over simpler binary or ternary alternatives. The material represents an emerging direction in sustainable energy conversion, with development focused on thin-film solar devices and solid-state cooling/power generation systems where compositional flexibility and earth-abundant elements are valued over conventional silicon or III-V semiconductors.
