Abstract
The effective masses of electrons m n /m o in the intrinsic region are calculated on the basis of measurements of the temperature dependence of the total magnetic susceptibility and the Hall coefficient of single-crystal and polycrystalline specimens of n- and p-type InSb. It is shown that the effective masses m n /m o are constant in the range considered and their values for the various specimens are 3·43×10−2 to 3·53×10−2.
