Based on a thermodynamic analysis, the vapor phase of the Hg 1‐x Cd x Te—HgI 2 —CdTe epitaxy system consists predominantly of Hg(g) and HgI 2 (g) through which nutrient species migrate from the source to the CdTe substrate. Growth experiments in the 590° → 535°C temperature gradient showed that Hg 1‐x Cd x Te layers can be grown on CdTe substrates using a preannealed, ternary source material in the presence of HgI 2 .
