Abstract

Single crystals of Cd0.95Zn0.05Te were grown by the vertical unseeded vapor growth. Large (1-2 cm3, homogeneous crystals with high purity and perfection were obtained. The system shows similarity to CdTe in its dependence of growth rate on time and on nonstoichiometry of the growth charges. The crystal resistivity was found to be strongly dependent on charge composition, being different from that observed for CdTe. Maximum resistivity of ∼ 107 Ω cm and a value of ∼ 102 Ω cm for Te-saturated Cd0.95Zn0.05Te were obtained.
