Abstract
The influence of the elastic component of the Gibbs energy of mixing on phase formation in the Cd-Hg-Te system was studied by a comparison of calculated dependences of layer parameters on growth conditions performed with and without the inclusion of mechanical strains in the growth system. The appearance of elastic strains between a layer and a substrate of the initial binary compounds insignificantly decreased the growth rate and almost did not influence the composition of the growing layer. The approximation of coherent conjugation of phases in the presence of elastic strain in the system and the assumption of the existence of chemical phase equilibrium at the interphase boundary give similar results for material growth. Both approaches quite satisfactorily describe the experimental data on layer growth under various temperature-time conditions.
