Abstract
Cr x Hg1 − x crystals grown by solid-state recrystallization have been characterized by electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy, transport measurements, and X-ray microanalysis. The results demonstrate that the crystals contain rectangular HgCr2Se4 inclusions elongated along one of their axes and irregularly shaped Cr x Hg1 − x and CrHg inclusions. In the range 77–400 K, the electrical properties of samples cut from different parts of the crystals are typical of semiconductors with a strongly degenerate electron gas.
