Abstract
We have studied the luminescent properties of three CdS-based solid-solution series, resulting from isovalent anion substitution (CdS1−x Tex), isovalent cation and anion substitutions (Cd1−x ZnxS1−x Tex), and heterovalent cation substitution in combination with isovalent anion substitution (Cd1−x In2x/3S1−x Tex). The last two systems have been studied for the first time. The results demonstrate that red or near-IR lumiescence occurs in the three systems, but CdS crystals codoped with In and Te are more attractive because of the high impurity-related emission intensity at rather low In and Te concentrations.
