Effect of zinc on the solubility and distribution coefficients of bismuth in indium antimonide
In the preparation of solid structures of InSb with Bi and Zn, it is necessary to have information on the boundaries of the regions of homogeneity of solid solutions of bismuth and zinc in indium antimonide; for determining these regions along sections of the In-Sb-Bi-Zn quaternary system: InSb-Bi-Zn, InSb-InBi-Zn, InSb-In/sub 2/Bi-Zn, InSb-InBi-Zn/sub 3/Sb/sub 2/, InSb-In/sub 2/Bi-Zn/sub 3/Sb/sub 2/, melts of a certain composition along the direction of the rays with a ratio of Bi (InBi, In/sub 2/Bi) to Zn or Zn/sub 3/Sb/sub 2/ equal to 1:3, 1:1, 3:1 were synthesized. The melts were annealed for 300 h at 400/degree/C, cooled from this temperature in water, and studied by methods of metallographic and local x-ray spectral analysis. The study of the combined solubility of Bi and Zn in InSb thus showed that it increases significantly in comparison to the corresponding ternary systems and is a function of the section of the In-Sb-Bi-Zn quaternary system in which the indium antimonide is doped with bismuth and zinc.
