Faraday Rotation Mapping of Mercury Cadmium Telluride

Abstract

This report summarizes the application of Faraday Rotation (FR) to determine the uniformity of free-carrier concentrations in samples of Mercury Cadmium Telluride as a function of position. This report is the first application of FR measurement techniques on tertiary compounds. The results presented, demonstrate first order agreement of the technique with Hall measurements performed at cryogenic temperatures. Further studies and development of calibration standards are recommended.
