ABSTRACTPolycrystalline CdTe films were grown by a hot-wall-close space vapor transport technique. In-doped CdTe films were grown onto conductive tin-oxide glass substrates. In order to produce Cd-vacancies, the films were photocorroded using the electrochemical arrangement reported by C. Vazquez-Lopez et al [4]. CdTe films were photocorroted during different times of illumination. Photoluminescence spectra of these films showed that the peak at 1.55eV grows with the photocorrosion time. Our results indicate that the 1.55 peak is associated to Cd-vacancies which are produced during the photo-corrosion process.

ABSTRACTIndium-Tin Oxide (ITO) heat mirror films implanted into window glass were obtained by post annealing of argon irradiated coatings of In-5w/o Sn produced by reactive evaporation in oxygen. Characterization of coatings has been carried out using TEM and AES. Optical properties have also been evaluated. The production of acceptable thin films requires low energy deposition rates during ion bombardment. This places a limit on the extent of film-substrate mixing, which is required if increased film lifetimes are to be realized.

This paper reports a study of Fluorine-doped Tin Oxide (FTO) thin films deposited by the Pneumatic Spray Pyrolysis (PSP) technique. The films were deposited on glass substrates at 450 °C with a ~125 nm thickness, using an F/Sn ratio of 0, 0.2, 0.35, 0.5, 0.65 and 0.85, respectively. The samples were characterized by X-Ray Diffraction (XRD), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), UV-visible Spectroscopy and Hall Effect techniques, respectively. XRD results revealed that the FTO thin films were polycrystalline with a tetragonal rutile-type structure and had preferential orientations along (110) planes. SEM studies showed that FTO thin film morphology was totally affected by an increased F/Sn ratio. The calculated grain mean sizes were 10-35 nm. Optical transmittance spectra of the films showed a high transparency of approximately 80-90 % in the visible region. The optical gap of FTO thin films was in a 3.70-4.07 eV range. Electrical and optical properties of these films were studied as a function of the F/Sn ratio. Therefore, the optimal FTO (F/Sn = 0.5) films revealed a maximum value of the figure of merit approximately 8.05 × 10-3 (Ω-1) at λ = 400 nm. The high-conducting and transparent-elaborating FTO thin films may have several promising applications due to its multifunctional properties.
