Abstract

AbstractSpectral ellipsometry (SE) was applied to in situ composition control of Hg1−xCdxTe grown by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE), and the impact of surface topography of the Hg1−xCdxTe layers on the accuracy of SE was investigated. Of particular importance is the presence of surface defects, such as voids in MBE- Hg1−xCdx.Te layers. While dislocations do not have any significant impact on the dielectric functions, the experimental data in this work show that MBE- Hg1−xCdxTe samples having the same composition, but different void densities, have different effective dielectric functions.
