Abstract

Process for manufacturing, by mechanosynthesis, a powder of the compound Cu2ZnSnSe4, the process comprising a step in which the milling of a mixture is carried out, said mixture containing: - the chemical elements Cu, Sn and Se in elemental form; a ZnSe precursor; the mixture containing Cu, Zn, Sn and Se in the stoichiometric proportions in which they are found in the compound Cu2ZnSnSe4. The invention also relates to the use of the process for producing a thin layer, which is incorporated in particular into the composition of a photovoltaic cell.
