The diffusion of Cd during the epitaxial growth of CdHgTe layers on CdTe in Hg or Te ambients was studied by depositing 115Cd tracer onto the substrate surface. The self-diffusion coefficient of Cd in CdTe was found to be 9.7 x 10-12cm2/s at 700C. L.A.Bovina, F.A.Zaitov, V.P.Meshcheryakova, A.P.Semenova, V.I.Stafeev, G.M.Shalyapina: Poluprovodnikov Tekh.
