VAPOR PRESSURES AND PHASE EQUILIBRIA IN THE Ga-As SYSTEM J. R. Arthur (Bell Telephone Laboratories, Incorporated, Murray Hill, New Jersey)
Mass spectrometric and weight loss measurements of the species effusing from a Knudsen cell containing GaAs were used to obtain vapor pressures over the temperature range 900-1200°K. The As2 /As4 ratio was observed in these measurements to be substantially larger than previously reported when precautions were taken to prevent the buildup of arsenic vapor in the mass spectrometer ionization chamber. A third law treatment of the data gave enthalpies for the reactions: GaAs ~

the temperature range 4. 2-300°K. They were calculated from measurements of the sound velocity in different crystalline directions by the pulse superposition method. All elastic constants increase with decreasing temperature, the variation being somewhat larger for the cross coupling constants than for the diagonal ones. From the low temperature values of the elastic constant, the Debye temperature at O°Kfor CdS is determined as 219. 3°K.

On obtient pour des points particuliers de la zone Brillouin, les caractères des représentations irréductibles du groupe spatial cornplet. On déduit les règles de selection pour des processus a deux phonons dans l’infrarouge etla diffusion Raman pour des cristaux ayant la structure du rutile. The characters of irreductible representations of full space group are given for some points of first Brillouin zone. Group theoretical selection rules are determined for two phonons infrared absorption and Raman scattering processes in crystals having the rutile structure. (Received 6 March 1967)
