Abstract A novel method of copper indium diselenide nanoparticle
(CuInSe₂ NP) synthesis using a two-step, continuous flow,
solar microreactor is reported here. This method allows for
exceedingly fast heating and short reaction times using only
radiative heat transfer from simulated, concentrated solar
radiation. Chalcopyrite and sphalerite CuInSe₂ phases have
both been synthesized by changing nucleation temperature
and residence time through the solar microreactor, with
higher nucleation temperatures and longer residence times
allowing for the formation of the chalcopyrite CuInSe₂ phase.
