Abstract
The modified surface layers of the Cd1-xMnxTe crystals were obtained by the laser recrystallization of the crystal surface with the use of millisecond and nanosecond ruby lasers. The determination and diagnostics of the layer structural state were performed by the study the electron channeling patterns in the SEM. The AFM studies showed that mechanically stable contact regions in the CdTe crystal – Cu film system can be formed, depending on the laser energy density and beam defocusing. On the base of the ellipsometric studies, it was found that while irradiating the Cd1-xMnxTe crystal surface, the refractive index of the oxide film on the modified surface changes depending on the laser beam energy density, which can be interpreted as the formation of the oxides of the different chemical composition.
