Abstract

This paper reports on recent developments concerning the growth and characterization of Hg1-xCdxTe-CdTe superlattices and other Hg based superlattices such as HgTe-ZnTe, Hg1-xZnxTe-CdTe and Hg1-xMnxTe-CdTe. These superlattices have been grown in order to investigate the type III-type I transition in these superlattices. Thus a special attention has been given to the study of magneto transport properties.
