Determination of Bond Lengths and Electronic Structure of Cd1-xZnxTe Ternary Alloys by Synchrotron Radiation

Abstract:

High-resolution synchrotron radiation x-ray absorption spectroscopy on Zn K-, Cd L3- and Te L3-edges for Cd1-xZnxTe ternary alloys with x = 0.10, 0.30, 0.50 and 0.90 are presented. A detailed analysis of the extended x-ray absorption fine structure using the IFEFFIT program, and the chemical bonds of Zn-Te are obtained, suggesting distortion of the Te sub-lattice. The x-ray absorption near-edge structure of the Zn K-, Cd L3- and Te L3-edge are investigated, and the electronic structures of Cd1-xZnxTe with various compositions are studied.
