$Zn_xSr_{1-x}S$ 박막을 sputtering법에 의해 제작하여 결정구조, 결합상태, 광학적 특성 등의 분석에 의해 고용체 유무를 판단하고 유전체 이론과 비교.검토하였다. 실험 결과 $0.86~0.93{\leq}x{\leq}1$에서 zincblende구조, $0{\leq}x{\leq}0.29$ 범위에서 rocksalt 구조의 고용체로 되었으며, 이들 영역에서는 격자정수, 결합에너지 및 흡수단은 조성에 따라 거의 직선적으로 변화했다. 상분리 영역을 포함한 miscibility gap은 $0.3{\leq}x{\leq}0.86~0.91$범위에서 존재하고 이 영역에서의 격자정수, 결합에너지 및 흡수단은 경계 조성의 값으로 일정했다. 상전이에 관한 실험결과는 Phillips의 유전이론에 기초한 이온성과 일치하였다.
$Zn_xSr_{1-x}S$ thin films were prepared in the whole composition range by rf sputtering, using powder targets of a mixture of ZnS and SrS with the required mole fraction. The possibility of existence of $Zn_xSr_{1-x}S$ solid solutions was systematically investigated from the results of thin film growth, in terms of structural, optical characteristics and the chemical bonding of the constituent atoms. The XRD, XPS and optical results made it clear that the solid solutions with a single-phased zincblende structure and a single-phased rocksalt structure were formed at $0.86~0.93{\leq}x{\leq}1\;and\;0{\leq}x{\leq}0.29$, respectively. The miscibility gap, including phase separation regions was found to exist in $0.3{\leq}x{\leq}0.86~0.91$, in which lattice constants, binding energy and absorption edges kept almost constant by the same values as those at border compositions. The experimental results on phase transition agreed well with the fraction of ionic character fi based on the Phillips' dielectric theory.
