Deep level formation and band bending at metal/CdTe interfaces

Abstract
We present depth resolved photoluminescence and soft x-ray photoemission spectra of cleaved (110) CdTe interfaces with Au and In measured as a function of thermal and laser annealing. These techniques reveal Fermi-level positions at the processed interfaces which are clustered around discrete energies, which in turn coincide with the energies of deep levels produced by interdiffusion and reaction at metal/CdTe interfaces.
