Probing the significance of RF magnetron sputtering conditions on the physical properties of CdS thin films for ultra-thin CdTe photovoltaic applications

Applied Surface Science, 2022
Abstract We comprehensively explored the impact of RF magnetron sputtering conditions on the physical properties of CdS thin films for the first time. Structural, morphological, and compositional properties were altered to a great extent by the sputtering conditions.

Ultra-thin CdS buffer layer for efficient Sb2S3-sensitized TiO2 nanorod array solar cells using Sb-thiourea complex solution

Journal of Nanoparticle Research, 2021
In this paper, the compact and ultra-thin CdS thin films with different spin cycles are deposited on the TiO2 nanorod arrays via spin-coated-assisted successive ionic layer adsorption and reaction method using Cd(NO3)2 solution in methanol and the Na2S solution in methanol/water (v/v, 95/5), and the Sb2S3 prepared by pyrolysis using SbCl3-thiourea ...

Adsorption of 7-ethynyl-2,4,9-trithia-tricyclo[3.3.1.13,7]decane on ultra-thin CdS films

Surface Science, 2006
Abstract The adsorption mechanism for the new compound, 7-ethynyl-2,4,9-trithia-tricyclo[3.3.1.13,7]decane (7ETTD), on ultra-thin films (∼3 nm) of CdS is investigated. Multiple reflection absorption IR spectroscopy, in conjunction with inelastic electron tunneling spectroscopy, indicates that this compound forms a self-assembled monolayer adsorbed on

PIXE and RBS investigation of growth phases of ultra-thin chemical bath deposited CdS films

Nuclear Instruments and Methods in Physics Research Section B: Beam Interactions with Materials and Atoms, 2002
Abstract Polycrystalline CdS films, with thicknesses typically 20–180 nm, have been chemically deposited on glass substrates using an ammonia–cadmium–thiourea reaction solution. Film elemental composition, thickness and microstructure have been examined using proton-induced X-ray emission, Rutherford backscattering and atomic force microscopy ...

Application of ultra-thin CdS film as buffer layer in non-doped blue organic light-emitting diodes

Journal of Materials Science: Materials in Electronics, 2016
The device inserted 0.5 nm thick cadmium sulfide (CdS) as buffer layer, prepared by vacuum thermal evaporation method, has been studied on the non-doped blue organic light-emitting diode. Compared to the device without ultra-thin CdS film, the maximum luminance of the device with ultra-thin CdS film was 11,370 cd/m2 at 11 V, and the maximum current ...

Effects of Ultra-Thin Copper Layer on the Performance and Stability of CdTe/CdS Solar Cells

2017
CdTe solar cells have shown high efficiency well above 20%. Despite different copper-free back contacts have been successfully introduced this is still required for very high efficiency devices. On the other hand an excessive amount of copper results in degradation of the device and a suitable concentration is very important for a good trade off ...

Investigation of ultra thin Ca/Cd-arachidate films by Grazing Incidence Diffraction (GID) with a conventional X-ray tube and a synchrotron radiation source

Thin Solid Films, 1996
Abstract We examined the lateral atomic order and the correlation length of crystalline domains in ultra thin Ca/Cd-arachidate Langmuir Blodgett (LB) films by means of a surface sensitive Grazing Incidence Diffraction (GID) technique with a conventional Cu X-ray tube ( E tube = 8.05 keV), as well as a synchrotron radiation source ( E syn = 9.1 ...

Flexible Ultra-Thin Silicon Solar-Cell Implemented with Energy-Down-Shift Via Cd_0.5Zn_0.5s/ZnS Core/Shell Quantum Dots

ECS Meeting Abstracts, 2015
For the past few decades, flexible or bendable silicon, dye-sensitized, organic, and hybrid solar-cells have been intensively researched to improve power-conversion-efficiency (PCE) and to minimize the fabrication cost because of their attractive applications such as building-integrated photovoltaic (BIPV), and portable electronics power.

Assembly of Ultra‐Thin NiO Layer Over Zn_1−xCd_xS for Stable Visible‐Light Photocatalytic Overall Water Splitting

ChemSusChem, 2019
AbstractPhotocatalytic splitting of water into hydrogen and oxygen by using visible light is considered to be a clean, green, and renewable route for solar energy conversion and storage. Although the Zn1−xCdxS catalysts show comparatively higher activity for photocatalytic hydrogen generation under visible‐light irradiation, they suffer from serious ...
