Copper nitride, a metastable semiconductor material with high stability at room temperature, is attracting considerable attention as a potential next-generation earth-abundant thin-film solar absorber. Moreover, its non-toxicity makes it an interesting eco-friendly material. In this work, copper nitride films were fabricated using reactive radio frequency (RF) magnetron sputtering at room temperature, 50 W of RF power, and partial nitrogen pressures of 0.
