Abstract
The effect of A(2)B(6) passivating layers on properties of bulk p-Hg1-xCdxT e crystals has been studied. CdTe, ZnTe and US layers with 400 nm thickness were grown on the surface of a sample by a pulse laser deposition (PLD) me thod. The galvanomagnetic and photoelectric properties of the passivated cr ystals were measured. Accordingly, the layers have only a weak influence on the properties of the crystals. The electrical properties of the related A l-CdTe-Hg0.8Cd0.2Te and Al-CdS-Hg0.8Cd0.2Te heterostructures obtained by PL D method have been studied too. (C) 2001 Published by Elsevier Science Ltd.
