Abstract
The analysis of the surface morphology of Pb0.9Cd0.1Te:Pb (3 at.%) thin films obtained by the open evaporation in vacuum from pre-synthesized substances are performed. The quantitative composition and sizes of grains on the surface were analyzed. The films have a homogeneous composition and granular structure with individual grain sizes of several tens of micrometers. The introduction of Cadmium into the base matrix PbTe is the cause of the formation of defects such as grain boundaries due to the differ between crystal structure of CdTe and PbTe.
