Thermal properties of chalcopyrite semiconductors

RETRACTED: Structural, electronic, optical, elastic and thermal properties of CdGeP2 with the application in solar cell devices

“…Scientifically, recent studies suggest that chalcopyrites have truly unique properties not found in classical semiconductors and represent the most advanced technology for thin film photovoltics [1][2][3][4]. Cadmium chalcopyrites are currently of technological interest since it shows promise for applications in the areas of optical parametric oscillators and upconverters [5][6][7][8]. These semiconductors crystallize in the chalcopyrite structure with I-42d (D 2d 12 ) space group and are deduced from that of the zinc blende by the replacement of the cationic sublattice by two different atomic species.…”
