The diffusivity of Mn in CdTe, D(Mn), has been measured between 500 and 800 "C under saturated Cd and Te condaions. The variation of D(Mn) with Cd partial pressure was measured at 600 'C. Between 500 and 800 "C D(Mn) = (22.5: 3.30)exp [(-(2.35 for saturated Te, and between 600 and 800 "C for saturated Cd D(Mn) = (1.12:9,12) x 1O3exp(-(2.76i0.18)eV/kT) cm2 s-', These results are consistent with those at 600 "C which show D(Mn) to increase with decreasing Cd partial pressure. It is argued that lhe observed features of D(Mn) can be best accounted for in terms of a V& diffusion mechanism.
The diffusion model of Chandra et a/ for As in MCT is developed to obtain a relation giving the As diffusivity as a function of temperature and Hg pressure over the MCT existence range. Very satisfactory fi? are achieved with experimental data. A quantitative expression for [fiH,]/[AsTe] as a function of temperature and Hg pressure is also obtained.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
