A correction procedure for the quantitative electron probe microanalysis of nonstoichiometric crystals in the system CuInSe 2 –CuGaSe 2 is presented and applied to the analysis of the terminal members of the mixtures. In CuInSe 2 samples a precipitation of Cu 2 Se takes place due to an evaporation of volatile compounds with a composition ratio In: Se = 2:3. A similar reaction was observed in the case of CuGaSe 2 .
