β¦ Synopsis
An experimental apparatus based on the Travelling Heater Method (THM) has been set up to grow high resistivity CdTe single crystals. Chlorine doped CdTe ingots have been obtained at relatively low growth temperature (800Β°C), by using a Te solution with small amount of CdC12 . The chlorine concentration present in the crystals, has been measured by means of the coulo-bipotentiometric titration with silver ions as titrant. Measurements of the electrical characteristics (resistivity and carrier mobility) and thermally stimulated currents (TSC) have been also carried out on the obtained crystals, in order to obtain information about the influence of chlorine in the physical properties of CdTe.

CdTe single crystals have been grown using either the Bridgman or the travelling-heater technique. Crystals doped with indium or chlorine were compared with those without any intentional dopant. With high resolution atomic absorption spectroscopy analysis it was possible to measure the effective seg
