Journal of Modern Physics, 2012, 3, 1870-1877 /10.4236/jmp.2012.312235 Published Online December 2012 (http://www.SciRP.org/journal/jmp) Correlation between the Solution Chemistry to Observed Properties of CdTe Thin Films Prepared by CBD Method Laxman Gouda, Yelameli Ramesh Aniruddha, Sheela K. Ramasesha * Divecha Centre for Climate Change, Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore, India * Email: sheela@caos.iisc.ernet.in Received August 28, 2012; revised October 23, 2012; accepted November 7, 2012 ABSTRACT The promising solar material Cadmium Telluride (CdTe) is successfully deposited on both plain glass and ITO coated glass substrates. Many variations in composition of the solution used for deposition of the film are made to optimize the deposition conditions. The bandgap calculated from optical transmission studies is found to be a function of the Cd/Te atomic ratio in the film. The atomic ratio in the film is a function of the Cd/Te concentration ratio in the solution used in deposition. Based on several experimental data points an equation involving the Cd/Te atomic ratio in the film and the chemistry of the solution is deduced. Keywords: Photovoltaic Cell; Thin Film; CdTe; Atomic Ratio; Chemical Bath Deposition (CBD) 1. Introduction film by three electrode electro-deposition technique [19- 22]. Though larger samples can be prepared by this method by having larger electrolyte bath and adjusting the counter electrode surface area, only one sample can be deposited at a time. The process will not have a high throughput in terms of thin film preparation. Non-silicon based thin film solar cells are making a head way in the solar market. By 2010, the thin film solar cell production had grown to 13%. The largest share of pro- duction was the CdTe cells at 6% and at second place was silicon based thin film solar cells at 5% [1]. The Chemical Bath Deposition (CBD) technique has been widely used for depositing thin
