The properties of Si grown from the melt having impurities of germanium and gadolinium have been studied by IR-absorption and Hall effect methods.It was stated that Ge and Gd are effective getters for technological impurities of oxygen and carbon in silicon melt. It has been shown that the combined doping by rare earth and isovalent impurities allows to increase the thermostability of dislocationless monocrystals of silicon.
