Synthesis and characterization of RF-sputtered ZnTe/Cu 2− x Te thin films for solar cell applications

The incorporation of copper and oxygen into zinc telluride (ZnTe) thin films deposited by radio-frequency magnetron sputtering from a single ZnTe–CuO composite target was investigated. The nominal Cu and O concentrations ranged from 3 to 13 atom %, and films were grown at substra...
