Abstract

Quantum oscillations of the resistivity ρ 22 and Hall coefficient R 12.3 in the semiconductor alloy n-Bi 0. 93Sb 0. 07 have been studied at H {norm of matrix} C 3 and j {norm of matrix} C 1 in magnetic fields to 14 T and at temperatures of 1.5, 4.5, 10, and 20 K. At temperatures of 1.5 and 4.5 K, beats of quantum oscillations of ρ 22 and R 12. 3 due to a small deviation of the magnetic field H from the crystallographic C 3 axis have been observed. To determine the oscillation period Δ i, cyclotron mass m ci, cyclotron frequency ω ci, and extreme section S extri, experimentally measured quantum oscillation beats have been compared with the model beats of oscillations of three harmonic functions, two of which have close frequencies. The deviation of the parameters Δ i, m ci, and S extri from the same parameters when the magnetic field H exactly coincides with the trigonal C 3 axis has made it possible to estimate the magnetic field H deflection angle from the trigonal C 3 axis, which is ~1°.
