Abstract

Hydrogen incorporation in both undoped and nitrogen-doped CdTe and ZnSe is investigated. Evidence for a strong nitrogen-hydrogen interaction is presented. Preliminary data indicate that the growth of CdTe and ZnSe under an atomic hydrogen flux results in a significant concentration of paramagnetic defects possibly accompanied by enhanced auto-doping from residual impurities.
