The goal of this project is to evaluate the LPE growth | |
technique as a tool for preparing Hg1-xZnxTe suitable for | |
photodetectors. In the first year of this project | |
optimization of the growth conditions was done. The | |
objective for the second year is to study the parameters | |
which determine the transport electrical properties of | |
the Hg1-xZnTe epilayers. In this interim report we report | |
the first results of annealing experiments on the | |
epilayers and compare the characteristics of the annealed | |
epilayers with those of the as grown . The as grown | |
epilayers of Hg1-xZnxTe, 0.15 or = x or =0.24, exhibit p | |
type conductivity with carrier concentration of the order | |
1x10 to the 17th power/cm3. In order to decrease the | |
carrier concentration down to the level of 1x10 to the | |
16th power, the optimum carrier concentration for | |
photodetectors, the epilayers were annealed in Hg | |
atmosphere. The conditions of the annealing were similar | |
to those which are generally used for the annealing of | |
Hg1-xCdxTe, namely, temperature of the sample around 400 | |
C for several hours. Keywords: Mercury compounds, Cadmium | |
tellurides. | |
