Abstract

Magnetic and kinetic properties as well as transmission and absorption spectra of Hg 1−x−y Mn x Fe ySe (0.09 ≤ x ≤ 0.099 and 0.001 ≤ y ≤ 0.01) crystals are investigated at H ≈ 0.5–6 kOe in the temperature range T = 77–300 K. The band parameters are determined on the basis of experimental data. It is found that in the crystals under study at T ≈ 300 K, electron scattering by polar optical phonons dominates, direct optical band-to-band transitions occur, and replacement of a part of Mn atoms by Fe for x + y = 0.1 results in an increase in Eg op with Fe content.
