Recrystallization behavior of zinc selenide during chromium diffusion doping

  • Published:
Inorganic Materials Aims and scope

Abstract

We have studied the effect of high-temperature diffusion doping with chromium (Cr2+) ions on the microstructure of polycrystalline zinc selenide (ZnSe). We have determined energy and kinetic characteristics of solid-state recrystallization in ZnSe and assessed the effect of chromium concentration on the rate of grain growth during the doping process.
