The development of a reliable technique for making good electrical contacts to semi-insulating (Cd,Mn)Te monocrystalline plates meant for x- and gamma radiation detectors, a technique of crystal surface preparation and a technique of passivation of the surfaces between electrodes were the main objectives of the studies. The investigations of the electrical contacts were focused on the amorphous/nanocrystalline contact layers. The effects of passivation of the inter-electrode surfaces on the magnitude of the surface leakage currents were studied.
