Abstract

Scanning electron microscope (SEM), energy dispersive X-ray analysis (EDX) and X-ray double-crystal rocking curve (DCRC) were used to study CdTe or CdZnTe substrates and Hg1-x CdxTe liquid phase epitaxial (LPE) film. The results show that the morphology and quality of epitaxial-films depend upon substrate quality, substrate preparation and growth conditions. The quality substrate without grain boundary is the prerequisite for production of perfect epitaxial-films. A protected coverage on meltback LPE growth mode would be helpful to improve surface morphology and quality
