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.

DLTS of silver in germanium: evidence for an amphoteric impurity

TL;DR: In this article, the defect parameters of substitutional silver in germanium have been investigated with DLTS, and it was shown that the acceptor level with ionisation enthalpies Ev+0.116 eV, Ec-0.261 eV and Ec- 0.035 eV has not been reported before.

Photoluminescence from heavily doped Si layers grown by liquid‐phase epitaxy

TL;DR: In this paper, the band-gap shrinkage was found to be larger in heavily gallium-doped than in boron−doped silicon, indicating a dependence of this shrinkage on the chemical nature of the dopant atoms.

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.
