Abstract

CdTe/CdSe multilayer heterostructures thin films were prepared by thermal evaporation method. The CdTe/CdSe layers deposited on glass substrate and effects of annealing temperature on optical and structural properties of thin films were investigated. The XRD analysis revealed that CdTe and CdSe were in cubic (111) and hexagonal (100) forms. By increasing the annealing temperature, intensity of XRD peaks increased for multilayer heterostructures. Band alignment in heterostructures of CdTe/CdSe was of type II. Energy band gaps values for CdTe/CdSe multilayer heterostructures increased with respect to bulk compounds. During emission, red and blue shifts are observed in visible region in photoluminescence spectrum of CdTe/CdSe samples. Due to better crystallinity of multilayer thin film, 1LO, 2LO and 3LO phonon modes were observed in Raman spectrum.
