These single crystal layers were grown by molecular beam epitaxy on [001] CdTe substrates. The real part of the refractive index, n, was determined below the band-gap Eo in the range of 0.5-2.5 eV at T=300 K. The parallel reOectivity was measured near the Brewster angle at the YAG laser wavelength of 1.064 J.Lm (hv= 1.165 eV). Combining these results with the optical pathlength results (nd) of reOection measurements in a Fourier spectrometer we have determined n(x,v) over a wide spectral range by utilizing a three parameter fit. The accuracy of these results for n should improve waveguide designs based on this material.}, language = {en} } @article{BeckerHeEinfeldtetal.1993, author = {Becker, Charles R. and He, L. and Einfeldt, S. and Wu, Y.

The influence of the GaAs substrate temperature as well as the Hg and Se fluxes on the growth and the electrical properties has been investigated. It has been found that the growth rate is very low at substrate temperatures above 120°C. At 120°C and at lower temperatures, the growth rate is appreciably higher. The sticking coefficient of Se seems to depend inversely on the Hg/Se flux ratio. Epitaxial growth could be maintained at 70°C with Hg/Se flux ratios between lOO and ISO, and at 160°C between 280 and 450. The electron mobilities of these HgSe epilayers at room temperature decrease from a maximum value of 8.2 x 10^3 cm2 /V' s with increasing electron concentration. The concentration was found to be between 6xlO^17 and 1.6x10^19 cm- 3 at room temperature. Rocking curves from X-ray diffraction measurements of the better epilayers have a full width at half maximum of 5S0 arc sec.}, subject = {Physik}, language = {en} } @article{GreinerPolignoneBeckeretal.1992, author = {Greiner, P. and Polignone, L. and Becker, Charles R. and Geick, R.}, title = {Contactless measurement of the conductivity of II-VI epitaxial layers by means of the partially filled waveguide method}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bvb:20-opus-37838}, year = {1992}, abstract = {We report the contactless determination of the conductivity, the mobility and the carrier concentration of II-VI semiconductors by means of the technique of the partially filled waveguide at a microwave frequency of 9 GHz. The samples are CdHgTe epitaxial layers, grown on CdZnTe substrates by molecular beam epitaxy. The conductivity is determined from the transmission coefficient of the sample in the partially filled waveguide. For the analysis of the experimental data, the complex transmission coefficient is calculated by a rigorous multi-mode matching procedure. By varying the conductivity of the sample, we obtain an optimum fit of the calculated data to the experimental results. Comparison with conductivity data determined by the van der Pauw method shows that our method allows to measure the conductivity with good accuracy. The behaviour of the transmission coefficient of the sample is discussed in dependence on the layer conductivity, the layer thickness and the dielectric constant of the substrate. The calculations require to consider in detail the distribution of the electromagnetic fields in the sample region. The usual assumption of a hardly disturbed TE\(_{10}\) mode cannot be used in our case. By applying a magnetic field in extraordinary Voigt configuration. galvanomagnetic measurements have been carried out which yield the mobility and thus the carrier concentration. These results are also in good agreement with van der Pauw transport measurements.}, language = {en} } @article{BeckerLauGEICKetal.1975, author = {Becker, Charles R. and Lau, Ph. and GEICK, R. and Wagner, V.}, title = {Antiferromagnetic Resonance in NiO:Co\(^{2+}\) and NiO:Fe\(^{2+}\)}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bvb:20-opus-30772}, year = {1975}, abstract = {No abstract available.}, language = {en} } @article{ShanjiaXinzhangBoegeetal.1993, author = {Shanjia, Xu and Xinzhang, Wu and Boege, P. and Sch{\"a}fer, H. and Becker, Charles R. and Geick, R.}, title = {Scattering characteristics of 3-D discontinuity consisting of semiconductor sample filled in waveguide with gaps}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bvb:20-opus-37964}, year = {1993}, abstract = {No abstract available}, language = {en} } @article{ShanjiaXinzhangGreineretal.1992, author = {Shanjia, Xu and Xinzhang, Wu and Greiner, P. and Becker, Charles R. and Geick, R.}, title = {Microwave transmission and reflection of stratified lossy dielectric segments partially filled waveguide}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bvb:20-opus-37958}, year = {1992}, abstract = {The microwave transmission and reßection is evaluated for stratified lossy dielectric segments partially filling the rectangular waveguide by the method which combines the multimode network theory with the rigorous mode matching procedure.
