W. Palosz et al., GROWTH OF CADMIUM-ZINC TELLURIDE CRYSTALS BY CONTROLLED SEEDING CONTACTLESS PHYSICAL VAPOR TRANSPORT, Journal of crystal growth, 169(1), 1996, pp. 20-26
Bulk crystals of cadmium-zinc telluride, 23 mm in diameter and up to 4
5 grams in weight were grown. Controlled seed formation procedure was
used to limit the number of grains in the crystal. Most uniform distri
bution of ZnTe in the crystals was obtained using excess (Cd + Zn) pre
ssure in the ampoule.
