[111] GaSb single crystals doped with manganese were grown using the C
zochralski method without encapsulant in a reducing atmosphere of flow
ing hydrogen. Using the Mn concentrations calculated from the Hall mea
surement, the distribution coefficient (k(eff)) of manganese in GaSb w
as estimated to be k(eff) = 0.011 +/- 0.001. The dislocation density,
which increases along the growth direction, has also been found to be
in contrast to other nonvolatile dopants in Gasb.
