New approach at x-ray investigation of microstructure of supersaturated films of CdxPb1-xS solid substitutional solutions

Abstract

The films of supersaturated CdxPb1-xS solid substitutional solutions (0 < x < 0,25) with thickness 0.6–1.0 μm were synthesized by chemical bath deposition. The dependences of dislocation density, crystallite sizes and texture coefficient versus the cadmium content in the films were determined by analyzing X-ray diffraction spectra with the use of modified method of Williamson—Hall (MWH).
