Effect of gamma irradiation on the crystal structure of Cd1-xFexTe thin films		  pdf 

ABSTRACT

In the present investigations effect of γ-irradiation on crystal structure and surface morphology of Cd1-xFexTe (x = 0.08) thin films were studied. The properties of thin films exposed to γ- rays of 50, 100 and 150 kGy doses were characterized by XRD, SEM, EDX methods. XRD analysis confirmed the change in orientation of crystal planes after γ- exposure. It was defined that the peak intensity of (111) plane increased with irradiation dose and crystallite sizes were increased.

Keywords: Thin film, semimagnetic semiconductor, SEM, XRD, EDX, γ-radiation.
