It has been proposed to mini mize the occurrence of such faulty alloying spots by using, for the alloying process, a gold-antimony alloy with a trace content of arsenic.
It is an object vof our invention to provide a more reliable method of avoiding the formation of faulty alloying spots.
To this end and in accordance with our invention, we produce the electrode or electrodes on the monocrystalline body of silicon by alloying into the surface zone of this body a gold-antimony alloy which contains traces j of sulphur.

In this manner, highly-doped n-type conducting zones can be produced in the silicon dics. Between such a. zone andthe adjacent zone `formed by silicon which remained unaffected by the alloying treatment, there exists a p-n junction if the silicon, prior to the alloying process, had p-type conductives, such a p-n junction having the effect of making the device asymmetrically conducltive.
The above-mentioned melting processes for doping the igold with the above-mentioned additional substances, as well as the above-described alloy-fusion process and any subsequent melting processes as mayY be needed for fastening current supply conductors to the electrodes, are preferably performed in an inert atmosphere, particularly if the process requires a temperature above 500 C. Gases suitable as inert atmospheres are, for example,
argon, nitrogen, carbon monoxide. An addition of borax is to be avoided.
