Abstract
[Cr.sub.x]Hg.sub.1 -x crystals grown by solid-state recrystallization have been characterized by electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy, transport measurements, and X-ray microanalysis. The results demonstrate that the crystals contain rectangular [HgCr.sub.2]Se.sub.4 inclusions elongated along one of their axes and irregularly shaped [Cr.sub.x]Hg.sub.1 -x and CrHg inclusions. In the range 77--400 K, the electrical properties of samples cut from different parts of the crystals are typical of semiconductors with a strongly degenerate electron gas.
