Features of CdZnTe Substrates

  • Large-diameter CdZnTe single crystals of the world’s highest quality are achieved using our proprietary crystal growing technology.
  • CdZnTe can detect radiation with higher precision than other materials, for stable X-ray detection.
  • Our CdZnTe substrates with uniform Zn concentration enable customers to produce larger infrared sensors.

  • The high resistance results in low dark current.
  • Polarization does not occur, thanks to the outstanding stability.
  • Excellent interoperability with application-specific integrated circuits (ASIC) is possible.
  • Can be supplied as bare substrate or with planar device or pixel electrodes.
