Abstract

The control of the concentration of Zn and its fluctuation in the high pressure Bridgman grown CdZnTe crystals is part of our characterization work on the ternary grown ingots grown in house. In order to reach both high sensitivity and high position resolution, we have developed a new system consisting of a X-ray generator, coupled to a focusing X-ray capillary, delivering intense beams in the micron scale, since the intensity gain is around a factor of 100 compared to conventional methods.

The characteristic X-rays are measured through a high resolution CdZnTe detector (225 eV at 5.9 keV FWHM) cooled by a Peltier system. The results of our investigations on different kinds of crystals will be discussed.
