The SbTeI−Bi 2 Te 3 polythermal section of the phase diagram of the Sb 2 Te 3 +2BiI 3 ↔Bi 2 Te 3 +2SbI 3 reciprocal system was constructed using DTA and XRD methods. It was established that Bi 2-x Sb x Te 3 solid solutions (α-phase) primarily crystallize from the liquid phase along this section. Subsequently, crystallization proceeds by a number of non-and monovariant reactions, α+γ 1 , α+γ 2 , and α+γ 1 +γ 2 (γ 1 and γ 2 are solid solutions based on SbTeI, and BiTeI) heterogeneous regions of are formed in subsolidus.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
