摘要: Cd/sub 1-x/Zn/sub x/Te films of various stoichiometries have been prepared by the two-stage process. This technique involves depositing thin layers Te, Cd, and Zn onto selected substrates, then reacting these to form compound film. compositions changing from CdTe ZnTe successfully grown on glass ITO-coated substrates. Good quality need be deposited CdS-coated transparent substrates for front-wall solar cell fabrication. is possible case layers. concentrations higher than 25 at.% in absorber layer gave rise with poor morphology a highly diffused x/Te/CdS interface. The reason this behavior shown exchange reaction between film Cd CdS window layer. >
