Abstract

Department of Electrical Engineering and ERI, Gyeongsang Nnational University, Jinju 660-701, Korea(Received June 15, 2010; Revised September 7, 2010; Accepted September 9, 2010)Abstract: CdSe films were deposited on glass substrates (CdSe/glass) by thermal evaporation. Substrate temperature was lowered by cooling substrate holder with liquid nitrogen. Substrate temperatures were 200℃, 0℃ and -40℃. The crystallographic properties and surface morphologies of the CdSe/glass films were studied by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The optical and electrical properties of the films were investigated by dependence of energy gap, photosensitivity and resistivity on the substrate temperature. CdSe/glass showed energy gap of ~1.72 eV regardless of substrate temperature. The resistivity of the films decreased to 0.5 Ωcm by lowering the substrate temperature to -40℃. The CdSe/glass films prepared at 0℃ showed the highest photosensitivity among the films in this study. Keywords: CdSe films, Thermal evaporation, Photosensitivity
