Spectra of persistent photoconductivity (PPC) in HgTe/CdHgTe quantum well (QW) heterostructures of both n- and p-types have been investigated at T = 4.2 K. PPC is shown to be either positive (increase of carrier concentration in QW) or negative depending on a wavelength of the illumination. As a general trend, PPC maxima in n-type sample correspond to PPC minima in p-type samples and vice versa. It is discovered that in p-type samples the illumination with certain wavelengths results in the freezing out of free carriers in QWs but not in the conversion of the conductivity type. The latter indicates a significant role in the PPC mechanism of the built-in electric field that is switching off at the QW neutralization.

The influence of different charge carrier concentrations on the recombination dynamics between oppositely charged polarons is numerically investigated using a modified version of the Su–Schrieffer–Heeger (SSH) model that includes an external electric field and electron–electron interactions.
