Abstract:A switching of the S-type in the 20-200 µm thick polycrystalline n-CdTe:In layers with resistance of 10 3 -10 6 Ω·cm is studied. The electric instability in the layers is found to be due to the electron-thermal breakdown mechanism. The dependence of the switching threshold parameters on the intensity of exposure can be used for fabrication of infrared-radiation controlled electric switches on the basis of n-CdTe:In layers.А 2 В 6 semiconductor compounds find application in production of solar cells, radiation … Show more
