Abstracts

EN

Single crystals of ZnCr_{2}Se_{4} spinel doped with vanadium were prepared by chemical vapour transport. The chemical compositions of three crystals have been determined by X-ray diffraction. The structure refinement using the SHELXL-93 program system determine the cation distribution in the system as ZnCr_{2-x}V_{x}Se_{4}. For x values equal to 0.03, 0.1 and 0.13 the observed symmetry was cubic, space group Fd3m. Based on the structural data, influence of the V ions on the magnetic and electrical properties has been analyzed.
