Popis: Near-ideal p-CdS/n-Si heterojunction (HJ) band edge lineup has been investigated for the first time with the aid of I–V and C–V measurements. The heterojunction was obtained by the deposition of CdS films prepared by chemical spray pyrolysis technique (CSP), on the monocrystalline n-type silicon. The experimental data of the conduction band offset, ΔEc and the valence band offset, ΔEc were compared with theoretical values. The band offsets ΔEc=530 meV and ΔEv=770 meV were obtained at 300 K. The energy band diagram of p-CdS/n-Si HJ was constructed. The C–V measurements depicted that the junction was an abrupt type and the built-in voltage was determined from the C-2–V plot.
