Abstract
HgCdTe is the most widely used material for infrared photodetectors. HgCdTe epi-layers were grown on CdTe substrates with (111) orientation, using a slider LPE(Liquid Phase Epitaxy) technique. The change of surface morphology during LPE growth of Hg_(0.7)Cd_(0.3)Te was investigated. The wave-like surface at the initial stage of growth has transformed gradually to the terrace-like surface and the terrace width has increased with increasing growth time. Infrared tansmission was used to determine the composition of HgCdTe epi-layers.
