Abstract

The 80-mm-diameter ZnTe single crystals were successfully obtained by the liquid-encapsulated Kyropoulos (LEK) method. Both 〈100〉- and 〈110〉-oriented single crystals were reproducibly grown by using ZnTe seed crystals. Furthermore, 80-mm-diameter, 〈100〉 and 〈110〉 ZnTe single crystals were obtained by the pulling method. The etch pit densities (EPDs) of the grown crystals by the LEK and pulling methods were lower than 10,000 cm−2. The strain in the grown crystals by the pulling method was lower than that of LEK crystals.
