Ss. Varshava et al., MORPHOLOGY, STRUCTURE AND SOME PROPERTIES OF WHISKERS OF SILICON-GERMANIUM SOLID-SOLUTIONS, UKRAINSKII FIZICHESKII ZHURNAL, 39(2), 1994, pp. 230-233
The structure of the whiskers of Si-Ge solid solution (about 15 mass %
of Ge ) grown in closed bromide system and homogeneity of the crystal
s are investigated. The growth mechanism is discussed on the basis of
the results of X-ray crystal microanalysis and other investigations. T
he morphology and surface structure of the crystals are investigated.
Resistivity of the crystals is measuted and fields of their prospectiv
e applications are proposed.
