Abstract
Defects resulting from the crystallization of mother liquid inclusions are a common occurrence in crystals grown by the travelling heater me thod. The need to distinguish these defects from defects formed by sol id-state precipitation is stressed. This paper reports on an investiga tion of Te inclusions in Cd1-xZnxTe crystals which were grown from Te- rich solution zones and it gives an explanation of the mechanism of th eir formation by interpreting the composition changes of the matrix su rrounding them.
