Copper-based nanomaterials and applications

In this paper, we report results on the processing of cadmium zinc sulfide (CdxZn1-xS) ternary compound starting from the deposition of cadmium sulfide (CdS)/zinc sulfide (ZnS) bi-layers buffer configuration and a subsequent thermal annealing for its application to thin film solar cells. The impact of different CdS/ZnS bi-layers buffer configurations as effective alternative to the single CdS buffer layer, as well as the physical and chemical properties of the equivalent CdxZn1-xS ternary compound are presented and discussed. Results on physical properties optimization of CdxZn1-xS ternary compound for future applications to thin film solar cells are presented.
