Impurity analysis of CdCl₂ used for thermal activation of CdTe-based solar cells (2004)
Journal Article
Emziane, M., Ottley, C., Durose, K., & Halliday, D. (2004). Impurity analysis of CdCl₂ used for thermal activation of CdTe-based solar cells. Journal of Physics D: Applied Physics, 37(21), 2962-2965. https://doi.org/10.1088/0022-3727/37/21/004

We present an impurity analysis of cadmium chloride (CdCl2) using inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry. Six batches of CdCl2 with different nominal purity ranging from 99.999% to 95% were analysed. Each batch turned out to be different in ter...

Journal Article
Durose, K., Boyle, D., Abken, A., Ottley, C., Nollet, P., Degrave, S., …Bonnet, D. (2002). Key aspects of CdTe/CdS solar cells. physica status solidi (b) – basic solid state physics, 229(2), 1055-1064. https://doi.org/10.1002/1521-3951%28200201%29229%3A2%3C1055%3A%3Aaid-pssb1055%3E3.0.co%3B2-w

Recent developments in the following areas are briefly reviewed: a) the electrical structure of grain boundaries in CdTe absorbers, b) impurities and non-stoichiometry in CdTe solar cells and c) use of Sb2Te3 in contacts to CdTe. Nominally identical... Read More about Key aspects of CdTe/CdS solar cells.
