Indium effect on the properties of SnTe with varying degree of departure from stoichiometry

  • 1. Khar'kovskij Politekhnicheskij Inst. (Ukrainian SSR)

Description

The nature of changes in the SnTe structural and electrophysical properties with varying degree of departure from stoichiometry following the Sn→In cation substitution is investigated in detail. The SnTe homogeneity region in the Sn-In-Te system is found to be oriented in the InTe direction with a certain departure towards Te. The electric effect of In introduced in the form of (Sn→In) substitution impurity into SnTe, with a fixed departure from stoichimetry, depends on the In concentration, which is explained by the possibility of indium variable valency manifestation
