Abstract :
Thin CdS-layers, formed by vacuum thermal evaporation were put to pulse rate laser treatment in order to receive a CdO-layer as covering on them, through which activation and recrystallization of the layers were carried out. The so formed heterostructure: CdS-CdO was put to thermal treatment for the purpose of changing its properties. The CdO layer was removed after carrying out the activation and recrystallization.
