Abstract
Section titled “Abstract”Defect analysis and phase boundary mapping of Cu 2 HgGeTe 4 and Hg 2 GeTe 4 reveal reciprocal doping potential despite their similar crystal structures. Measurements validate predictions of Cu 2 HgGeTe 4 as highly degenerate and Hg 2 GeTe 4 as an intrinsic semiconductor.
