Abstract

At Т = 85 K, the concentration dependences of the anisotropy parameter of electron-phonon drag thermal e.m.f. in a wide range of concentrations (1,9 ⋅ 1012 ne N1 ≤ 4,6 ⋅ 1017 cm−3) are investigated on n-Ge and n-Si crystals. It is shown that the parameter M is insensitive in n-Ge (unlike n-Si) to the presence of impurities in the crystals up to concentrations ∼1015 cm–3.
