The formation of cadmium sulfide thin films by cathodic deposition of Cd2+ ions from a solution containing sulfur on different substrates (platinum, molybdenum, aluminum) is described along with the influence of the substrate on the formation and morphology. By evaporating a layer on the films deposited on aluminum, a heterojunction which exhibits photovoltaic effect is formed.
