Structures are formed on the p-CuIn{sub 3}Se{sub 5} crystals and photoelectric phenomena in the Cu/p-CuIn{sub 3}Se{sub 5}, Al/p-CuIn{sub 3}Se{sub 5}, and In/p-CuIn{sub 3}Se{sub 5} Schottky barriers are studied. The spectra of quantum efficiency for photoconversion in new structures were obtained for the first time. The characteristics of the interband transitions are discussed, and the CuIn{sub 3}Se{sub 5} band gap is determined. It is concluded that CuIn{sub 3}Se{sub 5} crystals can be used in the fabrication of high-efficiency broadband photoconverters of optical radiation.
