摘要
A technique for determining the stoichiometry of CdTe and CdZnTe crystals is presented. The sensitivity of this technique reaches the 10(-4) mol% range, while previously reported ones hardly reach the 10(-2) mol% range. The technique is thus suited both for the determination of the stoichiometry of polycrystalline charges to be used as feed material for the crystal growth and for the characterization of the room temperature point defect disorder of single CdZnTe crystals.
