SIMULATION FEATURES IN FORMING STRUCTURAL DEFECTS IN CADMIUM TELLURIDE UNDER ELECTRON IRRADIATION
Cadmium telluride (CdTe) belongs to a class of semiconductor materials A <sub>2</sub>B <sub>6</sub> (solar cells), that is an important space technology material. It is used to create solar cells, ionizing radiation detectors, photodetectors. In a short term, the development of solar energy in space technology is extremely necessary, in view of its special properties. However, when operating in the open space, the material is prone to degradation due to defective network evolution.
