This paper presents the results of growing quantum wells based on HgTe (HgTe/Cd(0.735)Hg(0.265)Te) 16.2 and 21 nm thick on substrates of (013) CdTe/ZnTe/GaAs by molecular-beam epitaxy. The composition and thickness of the spacer and of the quantum well were monitored by an ellipsometric technique during growth.

This paper presents the results of growing quantum wells based on HgTe (HgTe/Cd(0.735)Hg(0.265)Te) 16.2 and 21 nm thick on substrates of (013) CdTe/ZnTe/GaAs by molecular-beam epitaxy. The composition and thickness of the spacer and of the quantum well were monitored by an ellipsometric technique during growth. Galvanomagnetic studies in a wide range of magnetic fields (1-12 T) at temperatures close to that of liquid helium (4.2 K) showed that a two-dimensional electron gas is present in the nanostructures and that the levels are quantized. High mobilities were obtained for the two-dimensional electron gas: mu(e)=2 x 10(5) cm(2)/(V.sec) for an electron density of N(s)=1.5 x 10(11) cm(-2) and mu(e)=5 x 10(5) cm(2)/(V.sec) for N(s)=3.5 x 10(11) cm(-2). The circular and linear photogalvanic effects were studied in the quantum wells at room temperature in a wide wavelength interval: from the mid-IR (6-16 mu m) to the terahertz range (100-500 mu m).
