The distribution of impurities in the interfaces and window layers of thin-film solar cells (2005)
Journal Article
Emziane, M., Durose, K., Halliday, D., Romeo, N., & Bosio, A. (2005). The distribution of impurities in the interfaces and window layers of thin-film solar cells. Journal of Applied Physics, 97(11), Article 114910. https://doi.org/10.1063/1.1921344

We report a systematic multielement study of impurities in CdS window layers by dynamic and quantitative secondary-ion-mass spectrometry (SIMS) with high depth resolution. The study was carried out on CdTe/CdS solar cell structures, with the glass su... Read More about The distribution of impurities in the interfaces and window layers of thin-film solar cells.

Quantitative, dynamic secondary ion mass spectrometry (SIMS) combined with inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICPMS) was used to study the origin and distribution of impurities in CdTe/CdS/In2O3:F/glass solar cell structures. Particular em... Read More about A combined SIMS and ICPMS investigation of the origin and distribution of potentially electrically active impurities in CdTe/CdS solar cell structures.

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...
