Abstract

Phase equilibria in the Tl5Te3-Tl9BiTe6-Tl5Te2I system, containing ternary structural analogs of Tl5Te3, have been studied by differential thermal analysis, X-ray diffraction, microhardness tests, and emf measurements using concentration cells with a thallium electrode. A number of T-x sections, the 760- and 800-K sections, and the liquidus and solidus projections of the phase diagram are constructed, and the composition dependences of lattice parameters, microhardness, and emf are obtained. The results demonstrate that, despite the presence of a liquid-liquid miscibility gap, the system contains a continuous series of solid solutions isostructural with Tl5Te3.
