摘要: The absorption coefficient near the fundamental edge of Hg1-xCdxTe has been measured. transition from exponential tail to square root law deduced for direct interband within Kane-band structure is used determine gap energy. It was found that at energy weakly temperature dependent 2000 cm-1< alpha (Eg)<4000 cm-1.
