Surfaces nanostructures of condensate CdTe on glass and ceramics

Abstract

The research of structures on the surface of condensate CdTe, deposited by a method hot wall on substrates of glass and ceramics, are investigated. Normal and lateral sizes of surface objects are obtained from the topography of an atomic force microscope by a method watershed and their distribution histogram are constructed. The depending of mean values of normal, lateral size and form factor of crystallites from technological conditions: deposition time, substrate temperature and vaporization temperature are analyzed. The root quadratic dependence of the average sizes on the duration deposition is confirmed.
