Investigation of Te inclusions in CdZnTe crystalline material using Raman spectroscopy and IR techniques

IR images reveal that Te inclusions exist in CdZnTe crystal in the form of square, hexagonal and triangular shapes. The density of Te inclusions for sizes above 5 μm sharply varied from 2.27 × 10³ cm⁻² to 4.52 × 10⁵ cm⁻² with a consequent reduction in IR transmittance from ∼60.5% to ∼55% when the Te-rich volume increased to 83 ppma. Raman spectra suggested that the origin of a new peak at 262.5 cm⁻¹ could be a secondary phonon with A1 symmetry and E symmetry of Te inclusions. The peaks of triangular Te inclusions in Te-rich CdZnTe wafers were shifted to high energy, suggesting that compressive stress existed around the Te inclusions.

Float-Zone Mono-Crystalline Silicon

PAM-XIAMEN can offer float zone silicon wafer, which is obtained by Float Zone method. Monocrystalline silicon rods is got through float zone growth, and then process the monocrystalline silicon rods into silicon wafers, called float zone silicon wafers. Since the zone-melted silicon wafer is not in contact with the quartz crucible during the floating zone silicon process, the silicon material is in a suspended state. Thereby, it is less polluted during the process of floating zone melting of silicon. The carbon content and oxygen content are lower, the impurities are less, and the resistivity is higher. It is suitable for the manufacture of power devices and certain high-voltage electronic devices.

At room temperature, crystalline germanium is brittle and has little plasticity. Germanium has semiconductor properties. High-purity germanium is doped with trivalent elements (such as indium, gallium, boron) to obtain P-type germanium semiconductors; and pentavalent elements (such as antimony, arsenic, and phosphorus) are doped to obtain N-type germanium semiconductors. Germanium has good semiconductor properties, such as high electron mobility and high hole mobility.
