Abstract
A technique for synthesizing AsxSb1-xSI is described. The system is shown to form crystals of a limited solid solution. In the region in which a solid solution is formed, the crystals are ferroelectric photoconductors. An arsenic admixture reduces the Curie point from 295°K (SbSI) to 243 °K (As0.1(Sb0.9SI). A study of the basic electrophysical properties of these crystals is reported.
