Abstract :
Reducing the amount of secondary phases in as grown Cd1-xZnxTe material is one of the biggest challenges in modern crystal growth industry. Results of the post processing experiments as well as its short comes would be described in this paper. Consequences of various experiments performed to decrease the amount of secondary phases by changing the initial charge compositions and the growth parameters would be discussed and statistics would be shown.
