Abstract

We report the electron and hole charge transport properties of semi insulating CdTe:Cl grown by the Travelling Heater Method (THM). An alpha-particle Time of Flight (TOF) method was used to measure electron and hole drift mobility, with room temperature values of 880 cm(2)/Vs for electrons and 90 cm(2)/Vs for holes. The variation in mobility was also investigated as a function of temperature, with electron and hole mobilities at 190 K of 1150 cm(2)/Vs and 20 cm(2)/Vs respectively. Using a Hecht analysis the electron and hole mobility-lifetime products were also measured over the same temperature range, with values at room temperature of 8 x 10(-4) cm(2)/V and 7 x 10(-5) cm(2)/V respectively. Time-resolved ion beam induced charge (IBIC) imaging was used to produce micrometer resolution maps of electron drift mobility and signal amplitude, which showed excellent spatial uniformity.
