The electric and photoelectric properties and the dislocation structure are studied in p‐CdTe crystals after irradiation by ruby laser pulses. The dark current magnitude decreases and the dislocation densities increase both in irradiated and protected parts of the crystal. The model of a surface acoustic wave induced by a nanosecond laser pulse is used to explain the experimental results.
