摘要
Highly conductive n-type CdTe films were grown by molecular beam epitaxy by iodine doping, utilizing ethyliodide as the dopant precursor. The room-temperature electron concentration increased from 8 X 10(16) to 3 X 10(18) cm-3 for dopant flow rate from 10(-5) to 10(-2) sccm and the films exhibited very high electron mobilities. The structural and optical properties were determined by x-ray double crystal rocking curve and photoluminescence measurements. Secondary ion mass spectroscopic analysis indicated a high degree of electrical activity, and sharp dopant profiles. These results demonstrate that iodine is highly effective for the n-type doping of CdTe.
