Zn0.31Cd0.69Se films were prepared on indium-tin-oxide(ITO)-coated glass substrates by using thermal evaporation. X-ray diffraction spectra showed that the Zn0.31Cd0.69Se films had a mixed ZnSe and CdSe zincblende structure with a lattice constant a = 6.077 ˚A and that the crystals were preferentially grown with a (111) orientation. The optical energy band gap, measured at room temperature, of the as-deposited Zn0.31Cd0.69Se film was 2.05 eV and decreased to about 2.04 eV
∼ 1.96 eV upon annealing in a vacuum electric furnace at temperatures from 200◦C to 500◦C.
The dynamical behavior of the charge carriers in the Zn0.31Cd0.69Se film was investigated by using photoinduced discharge characteristics (PIDC) techniques.
