摘要
Quasichemical formalism is used to study self-compensation and reactions of point defects during annealing and successive cooling with aim to find a technique to prepare semi-insulating CdTe (SICT) with minimized deep level doping. We present a theoretical model which provides SICT also in 7N or less purity material with deep level density below the limit 10(13) cm(-3) which is demanded for detector grade CdTe. The principle of the method is based on a proper thermal treatment with the low temperature dwell and the defect reaction between shallow acceptor Cd vacancies and shallow donor Te antisite.
