| Abstract: |
The effect of subnanosecond laser pulses on the structure and electronic subsystem of extended defects in cubic semiconductors was studied using cadmium telluride (CdTe) as an example. A CdTe epitaxial film containing threading dislocations was exposed to pulsed laser emission at helium temperatures. This exposure led to a local rearrangement of dislocation, while the properties of the crystal lattice remained undisturbed. The rearrangement was visualized in situ via an observation of the single luminescent centers associated with the partial dislocation cores. The rearrangements in the center of the laser spot, as well as those far from this location, were detected, thus revealing the laser treatment's non-thermal, relatively long-range influence. We associated the corresponding mechanism with Peierls's gliding of dislocation under the impact of laser-induced hypersonic surface waves. The results we obtained are of interest in the development of all-optical methods for the local laser processing of extended defects in CdTe and subsequent expansion those methods to other A 2 B 6 cubic semiconductors.
