Thermoanalysis of quasi-ternary As2(S,Se, Te)3 semiconductor glasses

In comparison with other chalcogenide glassy systems, less attention has been paid to the quasi-ternary (quaternary) system As₂(S, Se, Te)₃. In this paper, thermal methods were used to characterize ten different quaternary homogenous semiconductor glasses that were prepared by mixing the stoichiometric binary systems As₂S₃, As₂Se₃ and As₂Te₃. The ratios of the constituent binaries in the quasi-ternary glasses exerted a great influence on their thermal spectrum. The samples poor in As₂Te₃ showed neither the exothermic nor the endothermic peak due to crystallízation (T _c) and melting (T _m), respectively, but only the glass transition (T _g). Three transition temperatures,T _g, T_c andT _m, were detected for other compositions. On the other hand, a phase separation was observed in the samples rich in As₂Te₃. A cyclic scanning technique was used to investigate the thermally-induced phases during two consecutive heat ing-cooling cycles covering the temperature rangeT _g?T_m. The energy of decompositionE _d decreased on increase of the ratio As₂S₃/As₂Se₃ (at constant As₂Te₃), whereas it increased on increase of the ratio As₂Te₃/As₂Se₃ (at constant As₂Se₃ or As₂S₃).     

Einkristallstudien zur Temperaturabhängigkeit der Kristallstruktur von α-Na3Hg

Temperature Dependent Single Crystal Investigations of α-Na₃Hg In contrast to β-Na₃Hg (rhomboedrally distorted Li₃Bi-type) α-Na₃Hg crystallizes in a hitherto poorly understood variant of the Na₃As-type. Based on temperature dependent measurements of poly- and single crystalline samples (?100°C < T < +35°C) we show, that in particular the sodium atoms (Na1) located in the region of the octahedral Hg₆-holes show a pronounced temperature dependent dynamical behaviour. To a lesser extend this is also true for the tetrahedrally coordinated Na-atoms (Na2). With increasing temperature the former ones more and more approach the centers of the opposite triangular faces of mercury atoms, limiting the Hg₆-octahedra along [001]. Occupation of the latter positions by sodium atoms would lead to unusual short interatomic distances d_{Na? Hg}. However before reaching this unreasonable situation α-Na₃Hg decomposes under formation of β-Na₃Hg.

Zur Chemie und Strukturchemie von Phosphiden und Polyphosphiden. 36. Tetrakaliumhexaphosphid: Darstellung,Struktur und Eigenschaften von α-K4P6 und β-K4P6

Chemistry and Structural Chemistry of Phosphides and Polyphosphides. 36. Tetrapotassiumhexaphosphide: Preparation, Structure, and Properties of α-K₄P₆ and β-K₄P₆ Tetrapotassiumhexaphosphide has been prepared quantitatively by reaction of the elements at 870 K in sealed Nb and Ta ampoules, respectively. Two crystalline modifications are formed: α-K₄P₆ is stable below 850 K, β-K₄P₆ is stable above this temperature. Both compounds are black semiconductors (E_G(α) = 0.55 eV) with metallic lustre. The orthorhombic structures are defect variants of the hexagonal AlB₂ type structures (K₄P₆□₂) and of a different stacking sequence of this type. Characteristic building units are planar isometric P₆ rings, formed by a specific ordering of defects in the partial structure of the major component. The short P? P distances (215.5 pm and 215.0 pm, respectively) are about 30 pm shorter than the distances compared with a single bond (221 pm). They represent one double bond which is delocalized about six bonds or an aromatic 2π-system. The thermal decomposition in tantalum crucibles, the reaction with quartz walls as well as the reaction with benzophenone in monoglyme yields quantitatively K₃P₇. The reaction with RCl ? Me₃SnCl in monoglyme at 223 K results in the formation of P₇R₃ with high yield (75%). Very probably the valence fluctuating hexaphosphene(4) system is formed at 195 K in the primary reaction step (³¹P-NMR, singulett at 473 ppm downfield).

Crystal chemistry of phases with the α-K2SO4 related structure in Na3PO4?Sr3(PO4)2?EuPO4 system

Phases related to the different forms of K₂SO₄ have been studied in the Na₃PO₄? Sr₃(PO₄)₂? EuPO₄ system by DTA and X-ray diffraction.

At high temperature the α-K₂SO₄ structure type seems to be adopted, while at low temperature the various phases crystallize with structures related to the β-K₂SO₄ type.
