Abstract: | New support is given for one of the controversial models about the electronic consequences of the CdCl2 treatment of a thin-film CdTe solar cell: the assumption that deep acceptor states are introduced in the bulk of the CdTe
layer as a result of the CdCl2 treatment. A detailed study of the doping profile using capacitance–voltage (C-V) measurements is performed as a first step.
The above assumption is numerically simulated with our simulation programme SCAPS. In this way, anomalous features of the
C-V measurements are fully explained, and further correspondence between calculated and measurable quantities is found.
