Abstract
The effective masses of conduction electrons in PbS, PbSe and PbTe have been found from room temperature measurements of Faraday rotation. The equivalent isotropic masses obtained for PbS and PbSe are 0.17(5)m0 and 0.11(4)m0 respectively. In PbTe, the value is 0.08(6)m0 for our purest material, with a marked increase in highly doped material.
