CdTe is considered as a viable absorber material for the thin film solar cell because of its excellent material … more advantageous for CdTe solar cells. …

Thin film chalcogenide photovoltaic technologies (CIGS, CdTe) make use of critical and toxic materials. Therefore a …

Polycrystalline CdTe and CdS films were prepared by thermal evaporation technique with thicknesses 1.0μm and 0.1μm … temperatures. Anisotype CdS/CdTe heterojunction has been prepared. The structure of the films was examined by X-ray diffraction …. Hall measurements confirmed the conductivity types for CdTe and CdS to be p- and n-, respectively. Electrical …

CdTe thin films were grown on GaAs(100) substrates by using molecular beam epitaxy at various temperatures. The results … of the X-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns showed that the orientation of the grown CdTe thin films was the (100 … photoluminescence spectra showed that the crystallinity of CdTe(100) epilayers grown on GaAs(100) substrates was improved by increasing …

The paper is concerned with the results of a thorough energy and life cycle assessment (LIA) of CdTe and CIS … impact indicators (with special reference to CdTe systems), in spite of their still comparatively lower efficiencies. …

CdS/CdTe solar cells have attracted attention recently for their potential as low-cost, high-efficiency solar cells of … the future. It is because the CdTe layer (used for photoelectric conversion) has a bandgap energy of 1. 51 eV, which …
