Abstract
The effect of microwave radiation on the transformation of impurity-based structural complexes in CdTe:Cl single crystals is studied using low-temperature photoluminescence measurements. It is shown that microwave radiation activates ClTe centers, resulting in an increase in the intensity of photoluminescence line of excitons bound at the corresponding ClTe donor centers. A nonmonotonic dependence of the integrated photoluminescence intensity on the duration of microwave irradiation is observed. At the initial stage of microwave irradiation (t = 30 s), an increase in the integrated excitonic photoluminescence intensity is observed; as the duration of microwave irradiation is increased, the photoluminescence intensity decreases. The experimentally observed variations in the photoluminescence intensity are athermal in nature. The hypothetical mechanism of transformation of impurity-based structural complexes is described.
