Effect of Rapid thermal treated CdS Films prepared by CBD

CBD법으로 성장된 CdS 박막의 급속 열처리 효과

CdS is II-VI semiconductor with a wide band gap of approximately 2.42 eV. CdS is the most popularly employed heterojunction partner to p-CdTe due to its similar chemical properties. The as-deposited films are annealed in Rapid Thermal Annealing (RTA) system in various atmosphere(Air, Vacuum and $N_2$) at $500^{\circ}C$. In this work, X-ray diffraction (XRD), atomic force microscopy (AFM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) of chemical bath deposited (CBD) CdS films on glass is carried out. In case of the annealed CdS films in $N_2$, grain size was larger than as-annealed films.
