Preferred Abstract (Original): 
This work describes a new technique to enhance photoresponse of metal chalcogenide-based semiconductor
film electrodes deposited by thermal vacuum evaporation under argon gas flow from synthesized Cu2SnSe3 sources. SnSe
formation with Cu-doped was obtained under higher argon gas flow rate (VA = 25 cm3/min). Higher value of
photoresponse was observed for films deposited under VA = 25 cm3/min which was 9.1%. This finding indicates that Cu
atoms inside the SnSe film were important to increase carrier concentrations that promote higher photoresponse.
