Growth and Structural Characterization of Zinc Blende HgS

Abstract: The zinc blende (metastable) modification of mercury sulphide was stabilized by the partial substitution of Hg atoms by Mn, Fe, and Co. The structure of such crystals grown by the modified Bridgman method was investigated by X-ray diffraction and electron transmission spectroscopy techniques. The single-phase character of the crystals was demonstrated, the presence of defects resulting from the disorder in the stacking sequence of (111) layers was evidenced.Introduction Mercury sulphide phase stable at ambient… Show more

“…Figure 1 presents a set of S L 2,3 emission spectra for epitaxial thin films ͑cubic ZnS and hexagonal CdS͒ and single crystals (Cd 0.51 Zn 0.49 S mixed crystal and HgS stabilized in the cubic phase by Fe impurities͒. 16,17 The main features of interest in this letter are the lower valence states with predominant metal d-state character. In Fig.…”

“…HgS is observed under normal conditions in both cinnabar phase and (meta stable) zinc-blende phase whereas HgSe and HgTe both possess (semi metallic) zinc-blende phase at ambient pressure. Also, cubic mercury chalcogenides belongs to zero-gap semiconductors with particular physical properties like inverted band structure, high non-parabolic of the conduction band [2] therefore these materials have attracted a lot of attention.…”

“…Figure a shows the SAED pattern of HgS nanocrystals corresponding to Figure d. This pattern clearly shows the characteristic of cubic HgS (β-HgS) polycrystallite, in which the diffraction rings can be indexed to (111), (200), (220), (311), (222), (400), (331), (422), and (333), respectively. It can be seen that this pattern is obviously different from the ED patterns of hexagonal HgS (α-HgS). , …”
