Chemical composition and structure of cathode- sputtered CdTe thin films

Structural and electrical properties of vapour phase grown Cd1−xFexTe single crystals

“…Also absence of extra peaks in XRD spectra shows that there are no impurities in the samples and there is no segregation of 'FeTe' either. Several authors also reported only zinc blende structure for CdTe system in thin films [17][18][19][20]. Silva et al [21], and Alvarez et al [22] noticed that X-ray diffraction patterns of Cd 1 − x Fe x Te thin films indicated amorphous and polycrystalline phases respectively with x = 0.05.…”
