Item Study of photo-conductivity in nano-crystalline cadmium telluride thin films(2011) Mahesha, M.G.; Bangera, K.V.; Shivakumar, G.K.Nano crystallite thin films of Cadmium Telluride have been grown on glass substrates by thermal evaporation under vacuum. The growth conditions to get stoichiometric films of the compound have been optimized. The effect of substrate temperature and annealing on photosensitivity has been investigated. Also the effect of deposition parameters and post deposition annealing on rise time and decay time have been studied in detail. © 2011 American Institute of Physics.Item Characterization of p-CdTe/n-CdS hetero-junctions(2009) Mahesha, M.G.; Bangera, K.V.; Shivakumar, G.K.Nano-crystalline CdTe/CdS thin film hetero-junctions have been grown on glass substrate by thermal evaporation technique. The growth conditions to get stoichiometric compound films have been optimized. The grown hetero-junctions have been characterized for their I-V characteristics. Analysis of I-V characteristics has been made to investigate the current conduction mechanism in p-CdTe/n-CdS hetero-junction. The band gap energy of cadmium telluride and cadmium sulfide films have been computed from the study of variation of resistance with temperature. Based on the study, band diagram for p-CdTe/n-CdS hetero-junction has been proposed.
