Abstract
Heterojunctions in the n-CdTe-p-ZnTe system were prepared via solid-state s ubstitutions, and their properties were studied. Under small forward bias, the current-voltage characteristics of the heterojunctions, both in the dar k and under illumination, are dominated by the generation-recombination pro cesses in the space-charge region. The spectral response of the heterojunct ions extends from the band gap of CdTe to that of ZnTe.
