摘要
It is well known that preparing temperatures and defects are highly related to deep-level impurities. In our studies, the CdTe polycrystalline films have been prepared at various temperatures by close spaced sublimation （CSS）. The different preparing temperature effects on CdS/CdTe solar cells and deep-level impurities have been investigated by I-V and C-V measurements and deep level transient spectroscopy （DLTS）. By comparison, less dark saturated current density, higher carrier concentration, and better photovoltaic performance are demonstrated in a 580℃sample. Also there is less deep-level impurity recombination, because the lower hole trap concentration is present in this sample. In addition, three deep levels, Ev ＋ 0.341 eV（H4）, E, ＋ 0.226 eV（HS） and Ec - 0.147 eV（E3）, are found in the 580℃sample, and the possible source of deep levels is analysed and discussed.
