Abstract

The band structure and optical properties of the CdSexTe1−x ternary mixed crystals have been studied using the pseudopotential formalism under an improved virtual crystal approximation approach. Quantities such as, energy gaps, band-gap bowing parameters, electron effective mass and dielectric constants are calculated. Our results agree well with the available data in the literature. The composition dependence of all studied quantities has been expressed by quadratic polynomial forms.
