Abstract

The last two years has seen rapid development in the growth of mercury cadmium telluride material for use in far infrared detectors. This paper will briefly review the progress before this period, and will focus on recent developments in these materials.

The emphasis will be on the direct alloy growth of HgCdTe material by organometallic vapor phase epitaxy (OMVPE).
