Abstract
AbstractThin films and structures of ZnTe and CdTe have been grown by isothermal close space sublimation using alternated exposure of single crystalline substrates to elemental Zn, Te and Cd sources. The results show that the use of vacuum conditions promotes the transport of vapors towards the surface and then efficient growth at lower temperatures. Films thickness ranged between 200 and 600 nm for 50 cycles samples. ZnTe and CdTe films were obtained even at temperatures as low as 310 °C. This is important because low temperatures worsen the inter‐ diffusion processes; as a consequence we have obtained relatively abrupt interfaces in the ZnTe/CdTe system. Its compositional, structural and optical properties are presented. These results offer new possibilities of this low cost technique for growing heterostructures. (© 2010 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.
