Abstract
The rapid thermal processing combined with metalorganic chemical vapor deposition (RTP-MOCVD) has been applied to the growth of II-VI heterostructures of CdTe/CdZnTe, CdTe/HgCdTe and ZnTe/CdTe. It has been demonstrated that all steps of rapid thermal processing contribute to the growth of II-VI compounds: (i) Photothermal pretreatment of substrate surfaces improves the crystalline structure and morphology of the films. (ii) RTP-MOCVD process results in higher growth rates (up to 60 μm/h) compared to conventional MOCVD. (iii) Rapid thermal annealing (RTA) leads to further improvement of the epilayers crystalline structure.
