Phase diagram of the quasi-binary system TlInSe2-SnSe2

The TlInSe2-SnSe2 quasibinary system was investigated using differential thermal and X-ray phase analysis methods. The phase diagram is of eutectic type (V type of the Rozeboom classification). The solid solution range of the ternary compound in the TlInSe2-SnSe2 system extends to 28 mol.% SnSe2 at 670 K. The eutectic point coordinates are 63 mol.% SnSe2 and 788 K. (C) 2010 Elsevier B.V.
