Structural, optical and electrical properties of Ni-doped CdS thin films prepared by spray pyrolysis

Effect of annealing on the structural properties of thermal evaporated CdIn2Te4/CdS thin film solar cells

“…An increase in the Cd ratio and a decrease in In and Te ratio was observed in the deposited absorber layer obtained by the thermal evaporation technique after annealing. The CdS values for the window layer material are consistent with the results of the study by Rmili et al [38].…”

Spin-coated nickel doped cadmium sulfide thin films for third harmonic generation applications

“…The CdS thin films have been extensively explored by numerous techniques, for instance, sol-gel dip-coating [14], spray pyrolysis [15], chemical vapor deposition (CVD) [16], sputtering [17], electrodeposition [18], pulse laser deposition [19] and chemical bath deposition [20]. With all the techniques to coat CdS thin films, the sol-gel spin-coating method stands out because it offers several advantages like simplicity, low cost, and its ability to generally obtain uniform films with good adherence and reproducibility [21].…”

Indium doping on the structural, surface and optical properties of CdS thin films prepared by ultrasonic spray pyrolysis method

“…Among of the metal chalcogenides, cadmium sulfide (CdS) is an important group II-VI semiconductors with a very important wide and direct band gap about 2.42 eV, high transparency, a small exciton Bohr radius of 2.5 nm and the high electron affinity [3]. In particular, CdS films with a wide range of forbidden energy are used as window material in solarcell [4].…”
