Abstract
A method of growing a cadmium zinc telluride (CdZnTe) crystal includes providing a crucible including a solid CdZnTe source and forming a Te-rich Cd—Zn—Te melt on the solid CdZnTe source. The method also includes positioning a CdZnTe seed crystal in physical contact with the Te-rich Cd—Zn—Te melt and growing the CdZnTe crystal from the Te-rich Cd—Zn—Te melt.
