glass, and Cu (InGa) Se 2 (CIGS) thin films by a chemical bath deposition (CBD) technique
using three different cadmium (Cd) sources: cadmium sulfate (CdSO 4), cadmium acetate
(CdAc 2), and cadmium chloride (CdCl 2). Among the three cadmium salts, CdCl 2, which
forms the most stable Cd-anion complex, produced the thinnest CdS films, presumably due
to the slow release of Cd ions. Considering the different growth rates of the three Cd salts …
