Method for growing germanium monocrystals

FIELD: physics. SUBSTANCE: method involves growing germanium crystals from a melt containing main dopant impurity - stibium and additional one - silicon, in an amount from 1.3⋅10 20 cm -3 to 3⋅10 20 cm -3 by dissolving silicon rods during the crystal growth. EFFECT: increased temperature stability of optical properties of germanium monocrystals. 1 tbl
