Cadmium telluride thin films have been produced using the Stacked Elemental Layer technique. The films were characterized using X-ray diffraction, optical transmittance and reflectance, and atomic force microscopy. The evolution of the thin film reaction and compound formation were studied using X-ray data. The results show that the growth is diffusion controlled and the activation energy is 81.8 kJ/mol. In addition, some physical properties of the films produced are reported.
