摘要
We use terahertz time-domain spectroscopy to measure the complex dielectric function of long-wave infrared Hg1-xCdxTe films (x = 0.18, 0.20, 0.22) as a function of temperature in a noncontact manner. Using a Drude-Lorentz model fit to the measured complex transmission function combined with a Kane model description of the band structure, we obtain the temperature-dependent conduction band carrier density, effective mass, scattering time, and carrier mobility for all three Hg1-xCdxTe films. The optical properties of a bare substrate of Cd0.96Zn0.04Te were also measured in the terahertz region. The high quality of the Hg1-xCdxTe films is demonstrated by ultrahigh mobilities exceeding 10(5) cm(2)V(-1)s(-1) and ionized donor densities less than 3 x 10(15) cm(-3) at temperatures below 100 K.
