Abstrakt: AbstractEXAFS was used to study the local environment of Se, Pb and Mn impurity atoms in germanium telluride. It is found that the three impurity atoms do not occupy fixed on-center positions in GeTe and that the origin and magnitude of the displacements are different. It is shown that the rate of decrease of Tcwhen doping GeTe with these impurities is determined primarily by the size of impurity atoms and the type of chemical bond between impurity and main atoms of the crystal.
