Abstract
CdSe and Cd(Se, Te) alloy layers were electroplated onto titanium substrates from both acid and alkaline baths. When annealed, these layers show good photoelectrode behaviour in a polysulphide electrolyte with high quantum efficiencies and stability. Donor densities are found to be in the range of 1014-1015 cm-3. Scanning electron microscopy studies show the layers to have a very irregular morphology and generally to be composed of elongated spherical particles. Annealing conditions can be chosen such that the layers are of cubic or hexagonal structure.
