Zum chemischen Transport der Übergangsmetalldioxide mit Tellurhalogeniden

The thermodynamic relationship between the transition metal dioxides and their tetrahalogenides is demonstrated, and a comprehensive survey on the thermodynamic values of the compounds is given. – All dioxides of the transition metals existing to 1000°C in the solid state are transportable by TeCl₄. Only those dioxides are transported by TeBr₄ which have corresponding oxide-bromides existing in the gaseous phase. – The forms of crystallographic growth are very similar. The favoured growth direction is [001], the crystal faces are {110}- and {100}-prisms, {101}- and {111}-pyramids, respectively.
