Abstract: | Galvanomagnetic properties of low and high mobility n-Hg0.8Cd0.2Te are reported. The experiments were carried out in magnetic fields up to 60 kG and between 1.8 and 77 K. The Hall coefficient does not show thermal and magnetic freeze-out of carriers. At 77 K the transversal magnetoresistance shows a proportionality ?⊥ ∝ B as was predicted by Gurevich and Firsov for the case of polar optical scattering in non-degenerated semiconductors. At 4 K where the mobility is governed by impurity scattering ?⊥ ∝ B2.4 was observed in the extreme quantum limit. A negative longitudinal magnetoresistance was found at 77 K. The experimental results of high and low mobility samples show significant differences. |
