Abstract

The structural state of a Zn1 − xFexSe (x = 0.001) crystal has been studied using thermal neutron diffraction. The diffraction patterns of the cubic crystal have been found to contain diffuse scattering regions concentrated in the vicinity of the strong Bragg reflections. It has been shown that the diffuse scattering effects are due to local transverse displacements of the crystal lattice atoms, and these displacements are induced by iron ions that demonstrate the static Jahn-Teller effect of the tetragonal type in the ZnSe compound.
