Abstract
The comparative analysis of experimental and theoretically predicted values of helical dislocation densities for CdTe:Cl and MoOx/CdTe:Cl crystals with perfect and mosaic structures were carried out. Two-fold increase in the dislocation concentration was found for MoOx/CdTe:Cl heterostructures as a result of compression deformations of the CdTe:Cl crystal lattice. The transitional deformed layer at the boundary between MoOx film and CdTe:Cl single crystal with a thickness of about 0.1 μm significantly affects the electrical and spectroscopic properties of the obtained systems as materials for γ-radiation detection. Typical square-root type of the reverse branch of current-voltage characteristics were measured for a heterostructures based on a perfect CdTe:Cl, when for MoOx/CdTe:Cl heterostructures based on a mosaic substrate, an atypical quasi-linear type of I(V) dependence is observed. The characteristics of the detectors are affected not only by the quality of the initial crystals, but also by the technology of their post-treatment.
