The films up to 3 mu m thick were prepared after optimization of different parameters such as concentration and pH of selenium containing solution, dipping time, temperature etc during electrodeposition of cadmium. These films were annealed in air at 773 K and characterized using X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy and optical absorption techniques. Further, the potential of applications of these films in solar energy conversion has been studied by forming the photoelectrochemical cells. (c) 2005 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
