Abstract

Powder X-ray diffraction data are reported for semimagnetic semiconductor Hg0.89Fe0.11S and Hg0.98Co0.02S crystals grown by the Bridgman method and for Hg0.80Mn0.20S crystal synthesized by a solid-state reaction method. The crystals have the sphalerite structure of metacinnabar (sphalerite-type high-temperature polymorph of HgS, space group F4¯3m). Phase analysis does not show any trace of other phases. The lattice parameters of the studied samples are a=5.803 20(5) Å, 5.8063(1) Å and 5.839 80(6) Å, respectively. The calculated density is reported.
