The temperature dependence of the electrical conductivity, Hall coefficient, thermo emf, and Hall mobility of the charge carriers in cadmium selenide and solid solutions based on it were studied for the temperature range 300-950/sup 0/K. The concentration of charge carriers increases with increase in the content of Cu/sub 2/GeSe/sub 3/ or Cu/sub 2/SnSe/sub 3/ at 300/sup 0/K, and this in turn leads to increased electrical conductivity in the solid solutions. The thermo emf and Hall mobility, however, decrease. The temperature dependence of the thermo emf, Hall coefficient, and Hall mobility in the solid solutions substantially differ from the analogous behavior in cadmium selenide.
