“…143 As stated, Hall measurements are also employed to investigate the electrical properties of ZnTe thin films. 146 Using the electrodeposition technique, ZnTe thin films were deposited at different bath temperatures (30–90 °C), where with an increase in bath temperature, the conductivity was found to increase due to the filling of a separate set of traps lying below the Fermi level. 196 Similarly, p- and n-type semiconducting layers were also prepared via the electrodeposition technique, followed by surface treatment employing CdCl 2 .…”

Intermetallic copper telluride thin films, which are important in a number of electronics fields, were electrodeposited using a potentiostatic method in low-pH aqueous electrolyte baths with various ion-source concentrations, and the electrical properties of the formed films were investigated after exfoliation from the substrate. The films were electrochemically analyzed by cyclic voltammetry, while surface and cross-sectional morphologies, compositional ratios, and electrical properties were analyzed by scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffractometry, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, ultraviolet photoelectron spectroscopy, and Hall-effect experiments. The copper telluride thin films, which were synthesized at various potentials in each bath, exhibit different composition ratios and structures; consequently, they show a variety of electrical and thermoelectric properties, including different electrical conductivities, carrier concentrations, mobilities, and Seebeck coefficients. Among them, the thin film with a 1:1 Cu:Te ratio delivered the highest power factor due to carrier filtering at the interface between the two phases.

“…PLD technology allows to precisely control the thickness of the film of the film, down to the atomic level, to form manganese-doped films by sequential deposition of two materials in this case, it was used as targets ZnTe and ZnTe: mn. Thus, by changing the layer thickness of each of them, it is possible to control the amount of impurities in the films [8]. In this research, zinc telluride films were grafted with manganese using PLD technique and optical and structural characterization of the pure and doped films were performed.…”

In this paper, ZnTe and ZnTe: mn films were obtained by laser deposition using ZnTe and mn co-deposition method. 2Te was used as targets and the ratio of shots was varied to obtain pure ZnTe films and films with 2% mn.ZnTe films were deposited with mn manganese for the purpose of p-type carrier concentration and to prove the effect of manganese concentration on the structural and optical properties of ZnTe thin films to consider their potential applications in electronic devices. After structural investigations conducted by X-ray diffraction technique, the studied samples are polycrystalline and have a cubic shape with preferred orientation along (111). XRD patterns were used to determine the microscopic parameters (crystal size, lattice modulus). Atomic force microscopy (AFM) was used to study the surface roughness of the thin films.A UV-Vis spectrophotometer was used to determine the energy gap.
