Abstract:

Basing on experimental temperature dependence of the Hall factor in telluride bismuth crystal doped with tin and iodine, chemical potential of holes and energy of two-electron impurity states of tin have been calculated within framework of two-band model at the temperature range of 77—330 K. Coefficient of temperature drift of tin two-electron level relatively the top of the valence band and value of Hubbard energy were estimated.
