Twin boundaries were usually decorated with Te inclusions, which could induce dislocations. The optical, elec- trical properties and detector performance of CdMnTe crystals with twins and free of twins were compared. The results showed that the wafers with a high density of twins usually had lower average IR transmittance and poorer crystalline quality. Besides, the energy spectra indicated that twin boundaries in a CdMnTe detector had a negative effect on detector performance; the values of both the energy resolution and (μτ)e were nearly half of those for a single crystal detector.展开更多
