摘要: Abstract A photoelectrochemical study of SnO2¦CdS¦CdTe thin film heterostuctures in contact with an electrolyte has been carried out. Upon thermal annealing treatment the isotype structure SnO2(n)¦CdS(n)¦CdTe(n) is converted into n¦n¦p structure, due to type conversion CdTe layer. This process basis formation efficient CdS¦CdTe solar cells. In a transistor-like n¦n¦p¦n formed. theoretical analysis behaviour this presented. By changing applied potential relative contributions from internal barrier and outer CdTe¦electrolyte can be separated. The simulation spectral responses allows one determine semiconducting properties semiconductors involved those barrier. improvement p-type caused by CdCl2 surface before confirmed method.
