Abstract

CdS/SnS and Cd 1− x Zn x S/SnS solar cells were fabricated. SnS films were deposited by the pulsed electrochemical deposition method using an aqueous solution containing SnSO 4 and Na 2S 2O 3. CdS and Cd 1− x Zn x S window layers were deposited by using the photochemical deposition method using an aqueous solution containing CdSO 4, ZnSO 4 and Na 2S 2O 3. Both the techniques were simple, economical and advantageous for fabricating cheap solar cells. The fabricated cells showed rectification characteristics. The photovoltaic properties were measured under AM 1.5 illumination. The cells with the Cd 1− x Zn x S window layer show larger photocurrent than those with the CdS window layer.
