Abstract
AbstractSolar cells fabricated from a sputtering target with 5% cadmium sulfide (CdS) intermixed cadmium telluride (CdTe) material was studied using Capacitance-Voltage (CV) profiling. The average efficiency of a set of these novel solar cells under one sun illumination was observed to be 7.56%. In contrast with standard sputtered CdS/CdTe cells, the junction capacitance of the mixed compound device was observed to show minimal change in the entire reverse bias range. The element mapping of the film using Bright Field Scanning Transmission Electron Microscopy (BF-STEM) was used to determine the distribution of S, Te, Cd, O, and Cl in CdTe film. From these observations, it is believed that the morphology and composition of the film resulted in a built-in potential which was sufficient to completely deplete the film.
