摘要: In this research, we studied point defects induced in Bridgman-grown CdZnTe detectors doped with Indium (In), Aluminium (Al), Nickel (Ni), and Tin (Sn). Point associated different dopants were observed, these analyzed detail for their contributions to electron/hole (e/h) trapping. We also explored the correlations between nature abundance of influence on resistivity, electron mobility-lifetime (μτe) product, trapping time. used current-deep level transient spectroscopy determine energy, capture cross-section, concentration each trap. Furthermore, data de-trapping times charge carriers. In-doped detectors, uncompensated Cd vacancies (VCd−) identified as a dominant The VCd− almost compensated Al, Ni, Sn, addition co-doping In. Dominant traps related dopant found at Ev + 0.36 eV an...
