Abstract

The influence of various recombination mechanisms in long-wavelength n-type HgCdTe structures on the lifetime of optically excited minority and majority carriers in a wide temperature range was analyzed. It has been shown that considering recombination involving shallow impurity states makes it possible to explain the dependence of minority carriers' lifetime on temperature without assigning too much importance to the SRH processes related to mercury vacancies.
