Abstract. Optical, electric and photoelectric properties of Cd1-xHgxTe alloy with a low Hg content (x = 0.05) have been studied. The depth of impurity levels determining the conductivity of the material, their concentration and compensation degree, as well as the carrier lifetime and surface-recombination velocity have been found.

Keywords: CdHgTe alloy, radiation detectors, conductivity, carrier lifetime.
