Annotation It has been shown that the electro-physical characteristics of cadmium telluride crystals with overstoichiometric cadmium, grown by Bridgman, are determined by melt pre-growth temperature. In the case of small melt overheat (ΔT  15 K) there were obtained the p-type crystals with a wide range of electrical parameters: the concentration of holes р  (1010  1016) cm – 3 and mobility р  (10  70) cm2/(Vs) at 300 K. If the melt was pre-overheated greatly (ΔT ≈ 40  65 К), the homogeneous n-type crystals were grown, for which n  (1014  1015) cm – 3 and n  (500  1110) сm2/(Vs) at 300 K. The n-type crystals heated to 720 K were stable, at the same time, in the p-type crystals under heating to Т  370 K there were observed the relaxation processes of hysteresis type.
