We investigate the electrodeposition of gallium metallic precursor on gallium and Cu/In substrates from acidic aqueous solutions. The effect of the supporting electrolyte and the solution pH value for the electrodeposition of Ga is investigated by cyclic voltammetry. During Ga electrodeposition, gallium gradually diffuses into the film, and reacts with CuIn alloy to produce CuGae₂ at the Cu/In interface. We use triethanolamine to protect the Cu/In and Ga films from being oxidized, and thus this improves the current efficiency of Ga-electrodeposition. The Cu-In-Ga films are annealed in an Se atmosphere to produce In_1-xGa_xSee₂(CIGS) thin films with high quality, and the efficiency of the solar cell prepared using these films is 9.42%.
