Abstract
The available data on solid solubilities of impurity elements in germanium and silicon are summarized in the form of solidus or solvus curves. New solubility data are presented for the lead-germanium, zinc-germanium, indium-germanium, antimony-silicon, gallium-silicon and aluminum-silicon systems. The correlation of the solid solubilities with the heats of sublimation and the atom sizes of the impurity elements is considered.

pn-Junctions in silicon with blocking capabilities beyond 2.5 kV produced by rapid thermal processing

TL;DR: In this paper, two different methods of rapid thermal processing for the doping of Si with Al have been developed (Al-diffusion in a halogen lamp RTP-system and Al-doping via formation of AlSi eutectic and epitaxial regrowth in a resistive graphite-heater RTP reactor).

Determination of trace elements in a silicon single crystal

TL;DR: Instrumental neutron activation analysis was applied to the determination of trace impurity elements in a silicon single crystal as discussed by the authors, which was compared with those in a single crystal in polysilicon melt.

Thin-film thermoelectric generator based on polycrystalline SiGe formed by Ag-induced layer exchange

TL;DR: In this paper, an Ag-induced layer exchange enables the synthesis of Si1−xGex (x: 0−0.3) layers at 500°C and dynamically controls the Fermi level owing to the self-organizing manner of impurity doping during layer exchange.

Electrical Properties of Pure Silicon and Silicon Alloys Containing Boron and Phosphorus

TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that at high temperatures, the electron and hole mobilities of pure silicon alloys are independent of temperature, and at lower temperatures scattering by both ionized and neutral impurity centers contribute, and the mobility is largest for the more pure samples.
