Mutual solubility and band gap energy (Eg) as a function of composition for the (CdTe)1−x-(ZnSe)x system were determined by X-ray diffraction and diffuse refrectance measurement. The results are as follows.
(1) X-ray diffraction study showed that CdTe and ZnSe were completely missible above 733°C, but two phases separation took place below this temperature. Two-phase ranges were found to be 0.20<x<0.85, 0.31<x<0.82, and 0.52<x<0.75 at 500, 600 and 700°C, respectively. Peak position of the missibility gap was estimated to be x=0.68±0.05 and 733±10°C.
(2) The dependence of Eg on composition for the (CdTe)1−x-(ZnSe)x solid solution annealed at 900°C was found to deviate downward from linearity.
(3) The following equation for the composition dependence of the Eg of the (CdTe)1−x(ZnSe)x system was derived from the experimental Eg data of the CdTe-ZnTe, CdSe-ZnSe, CdTe-CdSe, and ZnTe-ZnSe systems.

oindentthis equation is in good agreement with experimental data for the (CdTe)1−x-(ZnSe)x system within an error of 4%.
