It is shown that at low illumination intensities L μ of electrons increases with a power law μ ~ L<sup>γ</sup>, first with the exponent γ > 1, then with γ ≈ 0.5, and their concentration n almost does not change. Starting from the intensity L > 12 - 15 lx, the electron concentration increases strongly n ~ L<sup>β</sup> from β ≈ 3.0, and the parameters n and μ reach relatively high values ~(10<sup>15</sup> - 10<sup>16</sup>) sm<sup>-3</sup> and ~(150 - 200) sm<sup>2</sup>/V·s, however further, at L > 50 lx, a weak dependence of n(L) and μ(L) with β, γ < 1.0 is found. The obtained experimental results are interpreted on the basis of a model of a semiconductor film with intergranular potential barriers when the concentration and barrier mechanisms of photoconductivity operate simultaneously.展开更多

In such films, the residual photovoltage is caused by the separation of photocarriers by the built-in electrostatic field of the near-surface region of space charges and their asymmetric capture by deep levels of impurities or complexes, including impurity atoms and intrinsic defects, both in the bulk and on the surface of crystal grains. It has been shown that in activated films, a two-step exponential temporary relaxation of the initial photovoltage of the order of V<sub>APV</sub> ≈ (500-600) V is detected, and only 10% of it experiences long-term relaxation (t ≈ 100-120 min).展开更多

Focus is made on the dominant band of “super-hot” emission appearing in the spectral region located in energy above the fundamental absorption edge of a CdTe bulk crystal. A theoretical model has been developed that assumes the existence of a space-charge layer inside a microcrystal, which leads to the formation of a triangular potential well for an electron near the surface. The anomalous emission band arises as a result of the optical transitions of electrons from near-surface levels of spatial quantization to valence band states.展开更多

Doping film with In impurity leads to quenching of the doublet band, while further thermal treatment causes activation of the intrinsic band, the half-width and the blue shift of the red edge of which correlates with the maximum value of anomalously high photovoltage generated by the film.展开更多
