| Halogen transport method was applied to grow the crystals of solid solutions of ZnSe and transition metals at the temperature far below the melting point and phase transition temperature. The large crystals of ZnMnSe, ZnFeSe, ZnNiSe and ZnFeSSe were obtained. The technological parameters and shape of the quartz reactor were chosen for growth of a large crystal by self-nucleation; the transparent quartz furnace enabled the control of nucleation by visual observation. The parameters of crystal growth were determined. The crystal quality was estimated by X-ray diffraction method. The composition of crystals was determined by electron microprobe analysis and energy dispersive X-ray fluorescence analysis. |
