Abstract
A new procedure for preparing homogeneous single crystals of alloys over a wide range of compositions is proposed. The method, based on a modification of the usual Bridgman technique, promises to overcome variations in composition resulting from the high segregation rate of with respect to . During most of the growth period the melt composition is controlled by means of a second solid phase. In particular some results are reported in connection with a composition of significant interest for application as an infrared detector and spin flip laser material.
