Galvanomagnetic and thermopower studies in heavily compensated zinc selenide crystals

Abstract
The Hall coefficient, dc conductivity, and thermopower have been measured in three single crystals of zinc selenide heavily doped with indium to various degrees. It has been found that the excessive doping with indium leads to an increase of compensation with the increase of doping. The galvanomagnetic as well as thermopower measurements suggest impurity‐band conduction in the entire temperature region investigated (77–300 °K) in this material.
