Conventional p-CuInSe2 absorbers for solar cells have been homogenously synthesized using multi-step process despite a narrow crystal phase region in the phase diagram and the existence of various secondary phases. In contrast, here we propose artificially-designed heterophasic blended COPPER INDIUM SELENIDE (cas 12018-95-0) compounds for water splitting photoanodes using a simple one-step annealing synthetic process where the electrodeposited metal precursors were directly annealed with Se vapor injection and without additional intermediate steps. The resultant product is revealed to possess a novel “phase-blended structure” comprising two phases of p-type CuInSe2 and n-type CuIn3Se5 crystals. The CuInSe2 nanoparticles with a higher Cu fraction are three-dimensionally (3D) embedded in the n-type CuIn3Se5 matrix, which has been verified by various analysis methods such as X-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, and capacitance-voltage curve. The average diameter of the CuInSe2 nanoparticles is 66.8 nm and the interval between the nanoparticles in the CuIn3Se5 matrix is 67.6 nm. Consequently, the phase-blended structure photoabsorber exhibits a remarkably enhanced anodic photocurrent of 12.7 mA/cm2 at 1.23 V versus the reversible hydrogen electrode. The considerably enhanced photocurrent gain of the phase-blended structure photoanode is attributed to the excellent charge separation facilitated by the built-in potential generated from the 3D p-n junction.
