    摘要: A method of forming a solar cell incorporating a compound semiconductor is provided. The compound semiconductor is generally of the “II/VI” variety, and is formed by depositing one or more group II elements in a vapor deposition process, and then contacting the deposited layer with a liquid bath of the group VI elements. The liquid bath may comprise a pure element or a mixture of elements. The contacting is performed under a non-reactive atmosphere, or vacuum, and any fugitive vapors may be captured by a cold trap and recycled. The substrate may be subsequently annealed to remove any excess of the group VI elements, which may be similarly recycled.
