CdTe thin films
Influence of the thickness of CdS layer on the texture characteristics (morphology and crystalline structure) of the photovoltaic active layer CdS/CdTe was studied. CdS and CdTe films were grown by Close Space Sublimation technique combined with Substrate Rotation (CSSSR). In order to growth the CdTe films, three glass substrates with previously deposited CdS thin film with thicknesses of 106.3, 125.1 and 221.0 nm respectively were used. The conditions of CdTe films deposition were, vacuum pressure of 1x10-6 mTorr, sublimation source temperature 650 oC, substrate temperature 280 oC, source-substrate distance 5.0 mm, substrate rotation 1025 rpm and time deposition 10 min. The CdTe films obtained were with uniform thickness and dimensions of ~4.73 μm and compacted grain with sizes of 112.5, 108.2 and 140.3 nm respectively. The samples shown high quality crystalline with a preferential orientation in the plane (111), and the CdTe unit cell volume was less than thestandard pattern as a consequence of lattice contraction due at the formation of Cd vacancies confirmed by EDAX technique.
