Abstract
The influence of temperature on processes occurring during and after i on beam milling with low energy Ar ions (500-1000 eV) on Hg1-xCdxTe sa mples (x approximate to 0.2) was demonstrated. Nearly exponential depe ndence of the depth of the p-n junction created during ion milling on temperature in the range 77-300 K was found, Theoretical fits based on the presented model yield a migration energy of the mercury interstit ials of E(M) = 120 +/- 30 meV.
