Abstract
Films of CdS typically 0.3 mu m thick, grown on glass substrates at 35 0 degrees C, 400 degrees C and 450 degrees C by chemical spray pyrolys is (CSP) show n-type resitivities of 10(2) Ohm cm at 350 degrees C and > 10(5) Ohm cm at 400 degrees C and 450 degrees C respectively. This resistivity increase with temperature is attributed to decreasing amou nts of chlorine remaining in these films as a byproduct of the CSP pro cess and is consistent with the known n-type dopant behavior of chlori ne in this system.
