Abstract Cadmium telluride (CdTe)/Cadmium sulphide (CdS) thin-film solar cell is a potential
candidate for the production of energy through photovoltaic (PV) technology, which reduces …

The recent increases in the record efficiency of CdTe thin-film solar cell technology largely
benefited from enhancements in short circuit current densities (J SC) in the short-wavelength …

Recent improvements in CdTe thin film solar cells have been achieved by using CdTe1− x
Se x as a part of the absorber layer. This review summarizes the published literature …

The band structure and optical properties of the CdSexTe1− x ternary mixed crystals have
been studied using the pseudopotential formalism under an improved virtual crystal …

Structural, electronic and optical properties of Hg 1-x Mg x Se (x= 0, 0.25, 0.5, 0.75 and 1)
alloys have been investigated by using density functional theory calculations (DFT) with the …

A novel CdS/CdSe composite window structure was designed and then the corresponding
films were prepared by pulsed laser deposition as an improved window layer for CdTe …

A low-cost, scalable chalcogenide semiconductor thin film deposition process, Chemical
Bath Deposition, is used to fabricate semi-transparent TiO 2/CdS/CdTe solar cells. Cadmium …

We employ first principles methods based on density functional theory and beyond to study
CdSe x Te 1− x alloys in the zincblende and wurtzite structures. From the cluster expansion …

An all electron full potential linearized augmented plane wave method, within a framework of
GGA (EV-GGA) approach, has been used for an ab initio theoretical study of the effect of …

CdS/CdSe bi-layer film was prepared by pulsed laser deposition with different substrate
temperatures as an improved window layer for CdTe solar cells. The total thickness of each …
