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.

Critical Assessment of the Impurity Diffusivities in Solid and Liquid Silicon

TL;DR: In this paper, the diffusion of impurities in solid and liquid silicon is critically reviewed and assessed using the least-squares analysis and semi-empirical correlations, and assessed diffusivities have been applied to simulate the impurity diffusion profiles and the denuded zone in the intrinsic gettering annealing.

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.
