The hydrostatic pressure effects on CdxHg1−xTe alloys have been investigated. In the relatively low pressure region, we find an anomaly in each Hall coefficient vs. pressure curve for the alloys (x<0.09), which is attributed to the inversion of the Γ8/Γ6energy bands. In the relatively high pressure region, the electrical resistivities of the alloy crystals (x>0.09) show changes of three stages with increase of pressure. The crystal structures corresponding to the three stages are studied by an X-ray diffraction analysis. It is found that the crystal structure of the alloys exhibits transitions from the zinc-blende to the rock salt type and at last to the hexagonal cinnabar type.
