In Bridgman grown single crystalline Hg1-xCdxTe (x similar or equal to
0.2) it was found that edge dislocations are mostly aligned forming t
ilt sub-boundaries separating adjacent subgrains with a misorientation
angle phi in a range of 30'' < phi < 100''. The effect of thermal ann
ealings at 650 degrees C on the increase of subgrain size is studied.
Different growth models to explain the size increase were validated.
