Abstract
We report the application of diode admittance spectroscopy in characterizing traps in Hg1−xCdxTe. Measurements performed on n+-p junction photodiodes have identified a hole trap located 0.16 eV above the valence band in x=0.305 liquid-phase-epitaxy-grown material and a single hole trap located 0.046 eV above the valence band in x=0.219 bulk-grown material. Measurements of trap density and majority-carrier capture cross section have also been carried out, with results suggesting hole capture at a neutral trapping center. Trap energies determined by the admittance spectroscopy technique were found to be in good agreement with lifetime-versus-temperature data analyzed in terms of a single Shockley-Read recombination center.
