Composition profiles of eutectic alloy Pb25.9Sn74.1 atomic % grown by the normal and inverted Bridgman methods are presented and the study of the solute alloy redistribution is made. The inverted vertical Bridgman method, where the solidification occurs from the top to the bottom of the melt under a destabilizing thermal gradient, allows the growth of crystals with buoyancy-driven convection different from that with the usual vertical Bridgman configuration. The scope of this work is to study the influence of the gravity acceleration in the convection process.

In this work, Ga2S3 crystals were obtained by vertical Bridgman method. The presence of cracks in the grown crystals was interpreted as a result of phase transition into monoclinic structure during cooling. This suggests the use of another approach for the growth of high quality samples, e.g. chemical transport method or melt-solution method. Maximal transparency range of 0.48-22.5 μm and at least 10 times higher damage threshold to that for GaSe render anisotropic Ga2S3 crystal among the most prospective crystals for nonlinear applications.

Single crystals of Pb1-xCdxSe compounds with x = 0, 0.01, 0.03, 0.05, 0.07 and 0.1 were grown by vertical Bridgman method. The crystalline phase and stochiometry for these crystals were investigated by X-ray diffraction, SEM and electron-probe microanalysis (EPMA). The thermoelectric behaviors for the Pb1-xCdxSe crystals were studied by means of thermal and carrier transport measurements in the temperature range between 50K and 400K. X-ray diffraction and SEM analysis confirmed that as-grown Pb1-xCdxSe crystals are simgle phase. The experimental results showed that the PbTe sample is p-type semiconductor but Pb1-xCdxSe samples with x = 0.01, 0.03, 0.05, 0.07 and 0.1 are n-type semiconductors. Temperature dependences of resistivity, Seebeck coefficient, and thermal conductivity for the various compositions of Pb1-xCdxSe were analyzed. The dimensionless thermoelectric figure of merit ZT for these compounds was evaluated and discussed. It was found that Pb0.95Cd0.05Se exhibits the best thermoelectric performance. The maximum figure of merit (ZT) of Pb0.95Cd0.05Se is about 0.47 at 290 K.
