摘要: The electrical and optical properties of the conductive n-type surface layer created in high resistivity CdTe:In by annealing at 400-600degC under Cd-rich overpressure was investigated. Slightly compensated donor level with concentration ND~1.3times10 16 cm-3 ionization energy ED~10 meV obtained from Hall effect measurement electron mobility reaches a maximum 1times104 cm2/Vs 35 K after 600degC. Purification confirmed photoluminescence measurement, where decreasing emission lines related to alkali silver acceptors were observed. line 1.854 eV, which is expected characterize material, detected as grown samples well
