Single crystals of CuInSe2 have been fabricated by the vertical Bridgman method. A conventional Czochralski crystal-pulling system was adapted for this purpose. An accelerated crucible-rotation technique was employed for a better mixing of the melt during the growth. Void- and crack-free crystal grains with an area as large as 50 mm2 and a thickness of more than 5 mm could be selectively cut from the ingots. From room-temperature Hall-effect measurements, mobility values as large as 73 cm2 ∙ V−1 ∙ s−1 were obtained for the present samples. X-ray diffraction studies suggested that abrasive polishing might create an amorphous layer on the surface of the CuInSe2 crystals.

AbstractTlBr single crystals grown using the vertical Bridgman-Stockbarger method were characterized for semiconductor based radiation detector applications. It has been shown that the vertical Bridgman-Stockbarger method is effective to grow high-quality single crystalline ingots of TlBr. The TlBr single crystalline sample, which was located 6 cm from the tip of the ingot, exhibited lower impurity concentration, higher crystalline quality, high enough bandgap (>2.7 eV), and higher resistivity (2.5 × 1011 Ω·cm) which enables using the fabricated samples from the middle part of the TlBr ingot for fabricating high performance semiconductor radiation detectors.

ABSTRACTThallium bromoiodide, a tuneable band gap semiconductor system, was investigated as a photodetector for scintillation spectrometers. Extensive zone refining of starting materials, based on numerical simulations, considerably enhanced the electrical resistivity to 1011 Ωcm. In addition, accelerated crucible rotation technique (ACRT) crystal growth and after-growth annealing have improved the charge carrier mobility-lifetime product. However, a relatively low signal-to-noise ratio due to a high dielectric constant and relatively low quantum efficiency continues to be an obstacle to achieving high performance, large area T1BrxI1−xphotodetectors.

AbstractTlBr single crystals grown by the Bridgman–Stockbarger method are studied. It is established that frozen-conductivity effects manifest themselves under interband excitation by light at temperatures below 200 K. Herewith, clearly pronounced superlinear dependences of the induced photoconductivity on the strength of the applied electric field manifest themselves. The results of studying thermally stimulated conductivity evidence that these phenomena can be associated with the filling of trap states with thermal activation energies of 0.08–0.12 eV. This state can be removed due to thermal quenching at temperatures of ≳180 K because of the emptying of energy states with an activation energy of 0.63–0.65 eV filled after optical generation.
