Abstract

The physicochemical interactions of Pb1 − x Sn x Te solid solution and PbTe single crystals with I2-DMF solutions were studied under reproducible hydrodynamic conditions for the first time. Their dissolution rates were investigated as dependent on the etchant components ratio and the temperature and stirring of etching blends, and the effect of the composition of solid solutions on the parameters of chemical etching was studied. Etchant compositions and the chemicodynamical polishing regimes for the studied single crystals were optimized.
