The Effect of Thermal-Diffusion Doping on CdS:Cu Single Crystals
摘要
In this work, a study was carried out of CdS:Cu single crystals, which are characterized by different levels of their own defects. It is shown that copper is introduced into the crystal lattice as an acceptor impurity and, within the limits of its solubility, leads to a change in the type of electrical conductivity from electron to hole. It was found that varying the time of thermal diffusion alloying, the process temperature, and the copper concentration significantly affects the concentration and electroactivity of impurity atoms. This, in turn, results in obtaining samples with specific resistance in a wide range of values from
