Abstract
We have investigated the energy band structure of single crystals of n-type Bi2-xSbxSe3 (0.2 less than or equal to x less than or equal to 0.52), p-ty pe InxBi2-xTe3 (0 less than or equal to x less than or equal to 0.1) and p- type Sb2Te1.2Se1.8 by cyclotron resonance in high magnetic fields up to 150 T. In n-type Bi2-xSbxSe3, two resonance peaks were observed corresponding to two conduction bands. Cyclotron masses have been determined for the uppe r and lower conduction bands for B parallel to c(3). It was found that the both masses are independent of temperature and electron concentration. Cycl otron mass of the upper valence band has been also determined for p-type sa mples of InxBi2-xTe3 (0 less than or equal to x less than or equal to 0.1) and Sb2Te1.2Se1.8 for B parallel to c(3).
