Abstract

Far-infrared magneto-transmission and magneto-transport measurements were performed on two HgTe/Hg_0.15Cd_0.85Te superlattices over a wide temperature region. Cyclotron resonances of holes and electrons associated with the HH₁ band and of thermally excited electrons in the E ₁ band are identified. The electron effective masses obtained from the cyclotron resonance data display a strong temperature dependence. An attempt is made to correlate the observed mass behaviour with the temperature-induced transition from the zero-gap to the open-gap regime of the superlattices.
