Study deformation effect of nanocrystalline photosensitivity activated thin films p-CdTe

Abstract

Studied photo and tensosensitivity nanocrystalline thin films of p-CdTe under various deformations. There was an increase in photographic sensitivity and tensor depending on the strain, tension. It was found that the tensile strain increases not only the height of micropotential barriers, but their asymmetry on the boundaries of the crystallites which favors the formation of a high photo and tensosensitivity in thin films. This is due to a change in the height of the potential barriers at the boundaries of the crystallites due to changes in surface states.
