Cadmium sulfides/copper sulfide heterojunction cell research
Abstract
Off stoichiometric resistivity control of Cds was achieved by cyclic sputtering of a Cd cathode in H2S/Ar and pure Ar, Resistivities of 1000 to 10,000 omega/cm were achieved. An effect of substrate metallization upon CdS deposition rate was identified as a temperature effect. The substrate metallization was found to change the radiative heat balance of the substrate glass. Differential thermal analysis measurements indicate that reactively sputtered Cu/sub x/S has the same phase change properties as single crystal Cu/sub x/S with x in the range 1.994 or equal to 1.997.
