Abstract
The results of an experimental study of the relaxation kinetics and ph otoconductivity spectra of n-and p-type CdxHg1-xTe, including the effe ct of a surface space-charge region on the photoconductivity are prese nted. It is shown that changes in the photoconductivity of CdxHg1-xTe in the short-wavelength region of the spectrum are due to a contributi on from this space-charge region and to the decreased value of the sur face mobility of charge carriers compared to the bulk mobility.
