Abstract

In photo-EPR, the EPR signature of microscopically identifiable defects is used to monitor light-induced electronic transitions. In this paper we summarize photo-EPR investigations of group IV donors, 3d transition metal impurities and complexes in CdTe. Energy levels and Huang-Rhys factors are derived for the 3d impurities by fitting a model calculation to the photo-ionization cross-section which is derived from constant photo-EPR. Comparison with results for other II–VI compounds confirm host-independent relative zero-phonon level positions for different 3d metal impurities and large lattice relaxation energies.
