Pb/sub 1-x/Cd/sub x/S accommodation coefficient calculations

In this paper, the accommodation coefficient of PbCdS is calculated for the first time. The key elements describing the accommodation coefficient are presented. Based on the theoretical adaptation of the existing formulas, and the data obtained from the variety of PbCdS films made by hot wall epitaxy, the accommodation coefficient of the system was calculated. The calculation depicts the decrease of accommodation coefficient with increasing temperature. The results agree with experimental data.
