Thermal Property Measurement Techniques and Some Results for CdTe and (Hg,Cd)Te Alloys

Abstract

In order to improve the manufacturing techniques for semiconductor materials as well as establishing the operating performance characteristics, the thermophysical properties, thermal conductivity, specific heat, expansion coefficient, emissivity and heat of fusion are required. Some of these properties have been measured for CdTe and (Hg,Cd)Te. In addition to these results, measurement techniques are also described.
