Usage

Description

The structure is cubic and has the fluorite arrangement. The unit-cell parameters are: a = b= c = 4.5148 ?, α= β = γ = 60°, cell volume = 65.07 ?3.Large high-purity single crystals of the semiconductor Mg2Ge have been grown by a modified Bridgman method. Crystals grown from stoichiometric melts were p-type with carrier concentrations at 77 K of about 1016/cm3 and Hall mobilities near 1100 cm5/V s. Excess magnesium placed in the melt acted as a donor and produced n-type material.
