Abstract

Thin films of ZnTe were deposited on glass and Si by pulsed laser ablation at substrate temperatures of 26°C and 286 °C. X-ray diffraction studies showed that films deposited at 26 °C were amorphous and those deposited at 286 °C were polycrystalline. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) showed the Zn: Te ratio to be 49.1: 50.9 for both types of films. The band gap of the films deposited at 286 °C was 2.2 eV. The conductivity of the films was 1.09 × 10-3 Ω-1 cm-1 and 2.59 × 10-6 Ω-1 cm-1 respectively at 300 K. The variation of conductivity with temperature and the properties of ZnTe/Si heterojunctions were also studied.
