| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Crystal structure of β-CuGaO2 was refined and its stability was evaluated using TG-DTA and high temperature XRD. Aa a result, this material is a metastable phase, but practically stable <300°C even under oxygen atmosphere. Impurity doping was attempted, and possibility of carrier injection by impurity doping was suggested. Based on the first principles density functional calculation, it was shown that β-CuGaO2 intensely absorb light around the fundamental absorption edge; therefore, it was shown that this material is a promising oxide semiconductor as a solar cell absorber.
