We report here electronic transport properties measurements, scattering mechanisms and theoretical results on Fermi energy, donor state energy and modeling carrier charge mobility in the ternary alloys Hg1- x Cd x Te (x = 0.22) medium-infrared detector. We report again the band structure, magneto-transport results, X-ray diffraction, Seebeck and Shubnikov-de Haas effects (SDH) in the medium-infrared detector, narrow gap and two-dimensional p-type semiconductor HgTe(5.6 nm)/CdTe(3 nm) superlattice. The later sample is an alternative to the investigated alloy.
