In this paper, a comparative analysis of the main physical, structural, thermoelectric and magnetic properties of various phases of manganese silicides is presented: mono- (MnSi), di (MnSi2) and higher silicides (MnSi1.75), obtained by the diffusion doping method. The temperature dependences of electrical conductivity, mobility, as well as thermoelectric properties, including the Seebeck coefficient and thermal conductivity, are studied. It is shown that manganese disilicide is an n-type semi-conductor with a band gap of ∆Eg 0.35 ÷ 0.45 eV. The Seebeck coefficient is 100 V/K at T 150 ÷ 200 K. It was established that the monosilicide has n-type conductivity, with a concentration of ~1021 ÷ 1022 cm – 3 and a mobility of 2 ÷ 5 cm2/Vꞏs, the disilicide has p-type conductivity, with a concentration of 1016 ÷ 1017 cm – 3 and a mobility of 1 cm2/Vꞏs, the higher silicide has n-type conductivity, with a concentration of 5ꞏ1020 ÷ 7ꞏ1020 cm – 3 and a mobility of 0.5 ÷ 2 cm2/Vꞏs. It is shown that each of these phases has a unique combination of crystallographic forms, electronic structure and technological capabilities, which determines their application in microelectronics, nanoelectronics and thermoelectric devices. |
