Abstract
Ssveral samples of CdTe were measured in a temperature range of −190‡C to 100‡C. The activation energies of the levels and their cross-section were determined. With some samples it was found that for more rapid heating the maxima of the curves of thermostimulated currents are shifted towards lower temperatures. Altogether three trap levels were found.
