Abstract

The values of the lattice period and the linear coefficient of thermal expansion (alfa) of Pb1-xCdxTe solid solutions are determined depending on the cadmium content and temperature using high-temperature X-ray diffractometry. Аn increase in the concentration of cadmium in Pb1-xCdxTe in the range x = 0.02–0.08 leads to a significant increase in the linear coefficient of thermal expansion. A change in temperature range T = 293–673 K leads to decrease in the linear coefficient of thermal expansion. Besides, an increase in temperature does not affect the value alfa of the undoped PbTe in the indicated temperature range.
