Single crystals of thallium-doped antimony telluride were grown from a melt by the Czochralski method; as a result, the impurity distribution was distributed more uniformly in the melt and the concentration in the liquid and solid phases is not observed to vary during the growth process. The authors considered the case when the antimony telluride single crystals were observed to have excess tellurium. It is shown that Sb/sub 2/Te/sub 3/ single crystals doped with 0.01 mass % Th and 0.1-1.0 mass % Sn have a uniform impurity distribution.
