摘要
We evaluated the effect of high-temperature treatment of Cd0.9Zn0.1Te:In single crystals using Hall-effect measurements, medium-and high-temperature annealing under various deviations from stoichiometry, and infra-red (IR) transmission microscopy Annealing at similar to 730 K sharply increased the electrical conductivity (by similar to 1-2 orders-of-magnitude). Plots of the temperature-and cadmium-pressure dependences of the electrical conductivity, carrier concentration, and mobility were obtained. Treating previously annealed Cd-samples under a Te overpressure at 1070 K allowed us to restore their resistance to its initial high values. The main difference in comparing this material with CdTe was its lowered electron density. We explained our results within the framework of Kroger's theory of quasi-chemical reactions between point defects in solids.
