Crystalline and optical properties of CdxZn1–xS (0.5 ≤ x ≤ 1) films doped with silver

Аннотация

The results from studying Cd_xZn_1–xS (0.5 ≤ x ≤ 1) films fabricated via pyrolysis from thiourea coordination compounds of cadmium and zinc bromides doped with silver ions having impurity concentrations of 10^–7, 10^–6, 10^–5, 10^–4, and 10^–3 mol L^–1 in sputtered solutions are presented. Films prepared at 400°С have the wurtzite lattice. The bandgap of pure and doped films, determined from absorption spectra near the edge of fundamental absorption, varies linearly from 2.5 to 3.11 eV. An order of magnitude increase in the intensity of luminescence is observed after doping with silver.
