Abstract

Polycrystalline ß-FeSi2 layers prepared by codeposition of Si and Fe on cold and hot Si substrates and ß-FeSi2, crystals grown by chemical vapor transport were investigated. Resistivity and Hall effect measurements revealed the p-type conductivity of undoped material and the influence of some dopants of the iron group. The activation energy of a Cr-related acceptor was determined to about 85 meV. The mobility data were found to depend significantly on the purity of the preparation process.
