An electrostatic-deformation model of atomic hydrogen passivation of electrically active centers of the type of compression defects in Cd1 – xZnxTe semiconductors is proposed. It is found that the effect of increasing passivation of electrically active centers in Cd1 – xZnxTe occurs when the concentration of atomic hydrogen NH does not exceed the concentration of acceptors NA (NH ≤ NA), and weakening of the passivation effect is observed when the concentration of atomic hydrogen NH is much higher than the concentration of acceptors NA (NH ≥ NA). The expression for the resolution Ri of optical-registering metal-dielectric-semiconductor nanostructures Cd1 – xZnxTe (0 ≤ x ≤ 1) is obtained and the resolution value for nonpassivated as well as for passivated in the hydrogen atmosphere semiconductor material Cd0.8Zn0.2Te is calculated, which is R1 = 6682 and R2 = 17423, respectively. A method for expanding the spectral range of optical information recording based on n-p-i-m nanostructures by changing the composition (0 ≥ x ≥ 1) of the solid solution Cd1 – xZnxTe is proposed.
