Abstract. Physical fundamentals are analyzed for the method of determination of Cd1-xZnxTe composition x from measurements of the luminescence band peak position, emission being caused by annihilation of bound exciton - shallow neutral acceptor complexes at 4.2 K. Found are the conditions when application of the method discussed enables to obtain reliable x values.

Keywords: Cd1-xZnxTe composition, excitons, exciton-impurity complexes, luminescence.
