本文叙述N型InSb单晶和含有大晶粒的双晶样品(n~1.23×1014—2.40×1015cm-3,μe~5.15×105cm2/V·sec—2.10×105cm2/V·sec),在500℃下、不同气氛中进行热处理产生受主,引起热转换,而整块地变为P型样品,当继续热处理使温度达到熔点以上时,这种P型样品中的热受主消失了,而转变回到原来的N型样品;若把这种N型样品再在500℃下进行热处理,则它又整块地变为P型样品。我们对这一新发现的过程进行了一些研究,发现这种现象与材料的不同制备条件和热处理时的环境气氛不同有关,并对不同气氛下的循环热转换过程和熔化效应作了论述。在500℃下进行热处理所引起的热受主浓度与热处理时间的关系中,发现在热处理起始的一段时间内,热受主形成速率较大;随着热处理时间的增加,热受主浓度达到一个饱和值;若再加长热处理时间,则热受主浓度开始下降,这现象与硅的热处理现象相似。根据实验得到的新结果进行分析,认为这种热处理现象不象是外来因素的影响所引起的,而是一种原来存在于InSb中的内在因素所起的作用,推测可能是与氧和氢有关。最后我们对解释这种热处理现象的可能的机理进行了探讨。This article describles that N-type indium antimonide single crystal and twin crystal involving larg grain samples (n≈1.23×1014—2.40×1015cm-3,μe≈5.15×105—2.10×105cm2/V·sec) are converted into P-type samples by heat treatment in different kinds of gases at 500℃. During this heat treatment, if the temperature rises to above the melting point, the thermal acceptors in the P-type sample disappear, and the sample is converted back to N-type. If this converted N-type sample is again heated at 500℃, it will be converted to P-type once again. We have investigated this new discovered process which is related to the varying preparation conditions of indium antimonide and the varying gas ambients of the heat treatment, and we have also discussed the process of thermal conversion cycle and melting effect.By the fact that the thermal acceptors has been introduced into N-type indium antimonide as a function of annealing time at 500℃, it is found that the rate of thermal acceptors formed is greater at the beginning period of annealing time; when the annealing time is increased, the thermal acceptor concentration rises to maximum and then subsequently diminishes. This phenomenon is similar to that when silicon is subjected to heat treatment.From the analysis of new results of experiments, it is considered that this effect of heat treatment of indium antimonide is likely carried out by internal factor which is already existed in indium antimonide. We think that can be related with oxygen and hydrogen. Finally the possible mechanism of the heat treatment of indium antimonide is discussed.
