Abstract
The changes in the real structure of CdTe monocrystals caused by the thermal action of a high-power laser pulse (1.6–1.97 J/cm2) were studied by high-resolution x-ray topography and diffractometry methods. It was shown that, under our experimental conditions, in a thin surface layer within the crystal region exposed to the radiation, a dislocation cell structure with an increased dislocation density and with considerable micromisorientations, in comparison with the crystal region unexposed to the radiation, was formed. The characteristics of this modified crystal region were determined, and the thickness of the layer with the changed structure was estimated.
