The dielectric function of Cd x Hg 1− x Se crystals, with x = 0 to 0.30, is measured by ellipsometry at room temperature between 1.8 and 5.5 eV. The E 1 and E 1 + Δ 1 gaps and the Δ 1 spin—orbit splitting show a upwards quadratic dependence on composition. The broadening of the observed structures increases with x due to alloying effects and disorder or to the difference in chemical activity of the surfaces. The results are discussed in comparison with those obtained for Zn x Hg 1− x Se and Cd x Hg 1− x Te.
