On the Electronic Structure of Bismuth and Its Dilute Alloys
Year: 1966
Type: article
Abstract: We studied the quantum oscillatory phenomena which were observed at 1.2~4.2°K in the de Haas-van Alphen effect, the magneto-acoustic attenuation, and the Shubnikov-de Haas effect of pure bismuth and its alloys doped with a small amount of tin, tellurium, antimony, arsenic or manganese. Our results obtained in this study with respect to pure bismuth, are in good agreement with the results of the other investigators. From the change of the periods of Shubnikov-de Haas oscillations in dilute bismuth alloys, we discussed the electronic band structure in the higher and lower energy parts than the Fermi level of pure bismuth, and could conclude that the Cohen's model gives a better approximation for the comprehension of the results.
