Physicochemical Aspects of Development of Multicomponent Chalcogenide Phases Having the Tl5Te3 Structure: A Review

详细

The literature data on ternary structural analogues of the compound Tl₅Te₃ and multicomponent phases based on them are systematized. This class of inorganic substances is of considerable scientific and practical interest as promising functional materials having thermoelectric, optical, and magnetic properties, as well as topologically protected surface states and superconductivity. The focus of the survey is on phase equilibria in ternary and more complex systems where structural analogues of Tl₅Te₃ are formed. Crystalstructure features, thermodynamic and some physical properties of these compounds and phases of variable composition are considered.
