Nanocrystalline CdTe thin films by electrochemical synthesis
Cadmium telluride thin films were deposited onto different substrates as copper, Fluorine-doped tin oxide (FTO), Indium tin oxide (ITO), Aluminum and zinc at room temperature via electrochemical route. The morphology of the film shows the nanostructures on the deposited surface of the films and the...

Summary: | Cadmium telluride thin films were deposited onto different substrates as copper, Fluorine-doped tin oxide (FTO), Indium tin oxide (ITO), Aluminum and zinc at room temperature via electrochemical route. The morphology of the film shows the nanostructures on the deposited surface of the films and their growth in vertical direction. Different nanostructures developed on different substrates. The X-ray diffraction study reveals that the deposited films are nanocrystalline in nature. UV-Visible absorption spectrum shows the wide range of absorption in the visible region. Energy-dispersive spectroscopy confirms the formation of cadmium telluride. |
