    Abstract

    In this study we have grown epitaxial layers of wurtzite–CdS on CdTe()B/Si substrates using molecular beam epitaxy. Indium was used to obtain n-type doping of CdS. The concentration and uniformity of In was determined by secondary ion mass spectrometry (SIMS). Indium profiles were obtained for concentrations ranging from 5×1017 to 1.4×1021 cm−3 and agree well with the variation expected from the In flux.
