Abstract
The peculiarities of the crystalandelectronicstructureof V1-xTixFeSb, х = 0 – 0,20, semiconductor solid solution wereinvestigated. Themechanismofgenerationofstructuraldefectsofacceptoranddonornatureisdescribed. In particular the nature of donors in n-VFeSb was established (“a priori doping”) as a result of presence of vacancies in Sb atomic site (4b). The obtained result lays in the basis of the technology for obtaining thermoelectric materials based on n-VFeSb with maximal efficiency of thermal to electrical energy conversion.
