By a simple analysis the quenching temperatures and partial pressures of components were found at which undoped p‐CdSe, p‐CdS, p‐ZnSe might be obtained. It follows, that p‐CdSe and p‐CdS may be produced by heating the crystals under excess chalcogen pressures at temperatures not exceeding 1140 °K for CdSe and 1040 °K for CdS. p‐ZnSe may be obtained in a wide range of temperatures and pressures. Experimental results are in agreement with the given analysis. As follows from the analysis, ZnTe is likely to exist only of p‐type.
