Effect gamma radiation of CdTe thin films deposited by thermal evaporation

الملخص EN

The effect of 0.66 μeV gamma radiation on the structural and optical properties of the CdTe thin films prepared by thermal evaporation at thickness 350nm, The samples were irradiated with time (50 h and 79h) at room temperature.

The absorption spectra for all the samples were recorded using UV-VIS spectrometer in order to calculate the energy gap, refractive index and others parameter .

The optical energy gap was found decrease from (1.9 to 1.67) eV.
