Defect formation dynamics during CdTe overlayer growth
J. J. Chavez, D. K. Ward, B. M. Wong +7
The presence of atomic-scale defects at multilayer interfaces significantly degrades performance in CdTe-based photovoltaic technologies. The ability to accurately predict and unde…

High-fidelity simulations of CdTe vapor deposition from a new bond-order potential-based molecular dynamics method
X. W. Zhou, D. Ward, B. M. Wong +8
CdTe has been a special semiconductor for constructing the lowest-cost solar cells and the CdTe-based Cd1-xZnxTe alloy has been the leading semiconductor for radiation detection ap…

Melt-growth dynamics in CdTe crystals
X. W. Zhou, D. K. Ward, B. M. Wong +1
We use a new, quantum-mechanics-based bond-order potential (BOP) to reveal melt-growth dynamics and fine-scale defect formation mechanisms in CdTe crystals. Previous molecular dyna…
