Abstract :
The isothermal vapour phase epitaxy was used for local growth of epitaxial HgCdTe layers on a CdZnTe substrate. The growth was realised at the openings (windows) in CVD deposited SiOx mask. The procedure enables the production of local epitaxial structures, convenient for the fabrication of single and multi-element infrared detectors.
