Abstract: The article presents a method of measuring the spectrum of energy density of surface states in the photovoltaic solar energy converters based on heterostructures. The authors introduce the results of investigation of surface states in the heterostructure CdS/Si(p), manufactured by hydrochemical deposition.

Keywords: heterostructure, photoelectrical converter, deep levels, transient spectroscopy, recombination, surface states.
