p-CdI $n_2$T $e_4$ 단결정을 Bridgeman법으로 3단 수직 전기로에서 성장하였다. 성장된 결정의 결정성은 X선 회절과 광발광 측정으로 조사하였다 막 성장된(as-grown) 결정과 여러 열처리 CdI $n_2$T $e_4$ 결정들의 광발광 스펙트럼 측정으로부터 CdI $n_2$T $e_4$:Cd 광발광에서는 중성 주개 bound 엑시톤 ( $D^{\circ}$,X)가 우세함을 발견하였고 반면에 CdI $n_2$T $e_4$:Cd 광발광에서는 중성 받개 bound 엑시톤 ( $A^{\circ}$,X)가 완전히 사라졌다. 더우기, CdI $n_2$T $e_4$:Te의 광발광 스펙트럼에서 중성 받개 bound 엑시톤 ( $A^{\circ}$,X) 발광은 막 성장된 CdI $n_2$T $e_4$결정에서처럼 우세하였다. 이러한 결과들은 ( $D^{\circ}$,X)가 주개로써 작용하는 $V_{Te}$ ,와 관련이 있고, ( $A^{\circ}$,X)는 받개로 작용하는 $V_{cd}$와 관련이 있음을 가리킨다. p-CdI $n_2$T $e_4$ 결정은 Cd 증기 분위기에서 열처리한 후에는 n형으로 type conversion이 된다는 것을 알았다. 중성 주개-받개 bound 엑시톤 ( $D^{\circ}$, $A^{\circ}$)과 이들의 TO 포논 복제의 발광은 $V_{Te}$ 나 C $d_{int}$와 같은 주개들과 $V_{cd}$ 또는 T $e_{int}$와 같은 받개들 사이의 상호 작용과 관련이 있다. 또한, CdI $n_2$T $e_4$에서 In은 안정된 결합의 형태로 있기 때문에 자연 결함의 형성에는 관련이 없음을 알았다 알았다았다았다

박막형 CdTe/CdS 태양전지의 배면전극(back contacts)물질로서 Cu도핑된 ZnTe 박막(ZnTe:Cu)을 전착법(electroplating)으로 제조하는 연구를 수행하였다. Sulfate계의 전해질 수용액에서 CdTe 기판과 투명전극으로 코팅된 유리(In$_{2}$O$_{3}$: Sn, ITO)기판 위에 ZnTe 박막을 코팅하는 방법으로써 potentiostat와 기판(cathode), Pt counter electrode, Ag/AgCI 표준전극으로 구성된 장치를 사용하여 pH=2.5-4, T=70-8$0^{\circ}C$, 0.02M $Zn^{2+}$ 1x$10^{-4}$M TeO$_{2}$, 0.2M $K_{2}$SO$_{4}$조건에서 -0.800 Vs~-0.975 V 범위의 전압(V$_{a}$ )에 걸쳐 실험하였다. ITO박막을 기판으로 사용하여 cyclic voltammogram을 작성한 결과 약 -0.50 V 에서 Te환원 peak이 나타났다. Auger electron spectroscopy (AES)로 조성분석한 결과 표면에서 Zn signal이 강하게 나왔고 시편의 두께에 따라 Zn의 signal감소하는 반면 Cd signal은 증가하는 것이 확인되었다. SEM 사진으로부터 ZnTe의 표면이 작은 입자 (0.2$\mu\textrm{m}$ 이하)로 구성되어 있으며 낮은 V$_{a}$ 에서는 입자가 작아지면서 조직이 치밀해짐이 관찰되었다. Optical transmission방법에 의하여 ITO기판위에 입혀진 박막의 밴드갭은 2.5 eV으로 측정되었다. 수용액중의 Cu$_{2+}$와 triethanolamine(TEA)은 산성용액에서 착물형성이 이루어지지 않았으며 1,10-phenanthroline과는 pH=2에서도 착물이 형성되었다.

The Cd$\_$1-x/Zn$\_$x/Te film was produced by thermal evaporation for the flat-panel X-ray detector. The crystal structure and the surface morphology of poly crystalline Cd$\_$1-x/Zn$\_$x/Te film were examined using XRD and SEM, respectively. The leakage current and X-ray sensitivity of the fabricated films were measured to analyze the X-ray response characteristic of Zn in a polycrystalline CdZnTe thin film. The leakage current and the output charge density of Cd$\_$0.7/Zn$\_$0.3/Te thin film were measured to 0.3 1nA/$\textrm{cm}^2$ and 260 pC/$\textrm{cm}^2$ at an applied voltage of 2.5 V/$\mu\textrm{m}$, respectively. Experimental results showed that the increase of Zn doping rates in Cd$\_$1-x/Zn$\_$x/Te detectors reduced the leakage current and improved the X-ray sensitivity significantly. The leakage current was drastically diminished by the formation of thin parylene layer in the Cd$\_$0.7/Zn$\_$0.3/Te detector.

The structure of boron ion-implanted pn junctio in the vacancy-doped p-type HgCdTe was investigated with the differential Hall measurement. The as-implanted junction showed the electron concentration as high as 1${\times}10^{18}/cm^{3}$ and the junction depth of 0.6.mu.m. When the HgCdTe junction was heated in oven, the electron concentration near the junction decreased and the junction depth increased as the annealing temperature and time increased. The junction structure after the thermal annealing was n$^{+}$/n$^{-}$/p. For the 200.deg. C 20min annealed sample, the electron mobility was 10$^{4}cm^{2}/V{\cdot}$s near the surface(n$^{+}$), and was larger thatn 10$^{5}cm^{2}/V{\cdot}$s near the junction(n$^{+}$). The junction formation mechanism is conjectured as follows. When HgCdTe is ion-implanted, the ion energy generates crystal defecis and displaced Hg atoms HgCdTe is ion-implanted, the ion energy generates crystal defecis and displaced Hg atoms near the surface. The displaced Hg vacancies diffuse in easily by the thernal treatment and a fill the Hg vacancies in the p-HgCdTe substrate. With the Hg vacancies filled completely, the GfCdTe substrate becomes n-type because of the residual n-type impurity which was added during the wafer growing. Therefore, the n$^{+}$/n$^{-}$/p regions are formed by crystal defects, residual impurities, and Hg vacancies, respectively.

We prepared semi-insulating CdTe for radiation detectors by isothermal annealing of single crystals grown by Bridgeman technique in a sealed quartz container filled with Sn vapor. The resistivity of CdTe:Sn samples thus obtained was of order of $10^{10}Ohm{\cdot}cm$ at room temperature with electrons lifetime of $2{\times}10^{-8}$ s, which is appropriate for the applications desired. Analysis of electric transport characteristics depending on temperature, sample thickness and voltage applied revealed the presence of traps with concentration of about $(4-5){\times}10^{12}cm^{-3}$ with the corresponding energy level at 0.8 - 0.9 eV counted from the bottom of conduction band. The conductivity was determined by electron injection from electrodes in space charge limited current mode.

The single crystals of p-$CdIn_2Te_4$ were grown by the Bridgman method without the seed crystal. From photocurrent measurements, it was found that three peaks, A, B, and C, correspond to the intrinsic transition from the valence band states of $\Gamma_7(A)$, $\Gamma_6(B)$, and $\Gamma_7(C)$ to the conduction band state of $\Gamma_6$, respectively. The crystal field splitting and the spin orbit splitting were found to be 0.2360 and 0.1119 eV, respectively, from the photocurrent spectroscopy. The temperature dependence of the $CdIn_2Te_4$ band gap energy was given by the equation of $E_g(T)=E_g(0)$ - $(9.43\times10^{-3})T^2$/(2676+T). $E_g(0)$ was estimated to be 1.4750, 1.7110, and 1.8229 eV at the valence band states of A, B, and C, respectively. The band gap energy of $p-CdIn_2Te_4$ at room temperature was determined to be 1.2023 eV.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the image quality, diagnostic efficacy, and radiation dose associated with the use of a cadmium telluride (CdTe) detector, compared to charge-coupled device (CCD) and complementary metal oxide semiconductor(CMOS) detectors. Materials and Methods: Lateral cephalographs of a phantom (type 1) composed of synthetic polymer filled with water and another phantom (type 2) composed of human skull macerated with polymer coating were obtained with CdTe, CCD, and CMOS detectors. Dosimeters placed on the type 2 phantom were used to measure radiation. Noise levels from each image were also measured. McNamara cephalometric analysis was conducted, the dentoskeletal configurations were assessed, and a subjective evaluation of image quality was conducted. Parametric data were compared via 1-way analysis of variance with the Tukey post-hoc test, with a significance level of 5%. Subjective image quality and dentoskeletal configuration were described qualitatively. Results: A statistically significant difference was found among the images obtained with the 3 detectors(P<0.05), with the lowest noise level observed among the images obtained with the CdTe detector and a higher subjective preference demonstrated for those images. For the cephalometric analyses, no significant difference (P>0.05) was observed, and perfect agreement was seen with regard to the classifications obtained from the images acquired using the 3 detectors. The radiation dose associated with the CMOS detector was higher than the doses associated with the CCD (P<0.05) and CdTe detectors(P<0.05). Conclusion: Considering the evaluated parameters, the CdTe detector is recommended for use in clinical practice.

We fabricated a large-scale photovoltaic device for detecting-3-5$\mu$m IR, by forming of n$^{+}$-p junction in the $Hg_{1-x}Cd_{x}$Te (MCT) layer which was grown by LPE on CdTe substrate. The composition x of the MCT epitaxial layer was 0.295 and the hole concentration was 1.3${\times}10^{13}/cm^{4}$. The n$^{+}$-p junction was formed by B+ implantation at 100 keV with a does 3${\times}10^{11}/cm^{2}. The n$^{+}$ region has a circular shape with 2.68mm diameter. The vacuum-evaporated ZnS with resistivity of 2${\times}10^{4}{\Omega}$cm is used as an insulating layer over the epitaxial layer. ZnS plays the role of the anti-reflection coating transmitting more than 90% of 3~5$\mu$m IR. For ohmic contacts, gole was used for p-MCT and indium was used for n$^{+}$-MCT. The fabrication took 5 photolithographic masks and all the processing temperatures of the MCT wafer were below 90$^{\circ}C$. The R,A of the fabricated devices was 7500${\Omega}cm^{2}$. The carrier lifetime of the devices was estimated 2.5ns. The junction was linearly-graded and the concentration slope was measured to be 1.7${\times}10^{17}/{\mu}m$. the normalized detectivity in 3~5$\mu$m IR was 1${\times}10^{11}cmHz^{12}$/W, which is sufficient for real application.
