Abstract

In this paper, effect of oxygen (O[Formula: see text]) ion irradiation on the properties of polycrystalline cubic structure CdTe thin films has been investigated. CdTe thin films were irradiated with O[Formula: see text] ions of energy 80[Formula: see text]keV at different fluence ranging from [Formula: see text] to [Formula: see text] [Formula: see text]ion/cm2 at room temperature. At [Formula: see text] [Formula: see text]ion/cm2 O[Formula: see text] ions fluence, the CdTe structure was maintained while XRD peaks of cubic phase were shifted toward lower angles. At [Formula: see text] [Formula: see text]ion/cm2 O[Formula: see text] ions fluence, cubic structure of CdTe thin films was transformed into hexagonal structure. In addition, electrical resistivity and optical bandgap were decreased with increasing O[Formula: see text] ion beam irradiation.
