Gallium telluride is a typical semiconductor having a layered structure in which the layers are built up on the sequence Te-Ga-Ga-Te /l/. The forces between the layers a r e weak and of Van d e r Waals type, while the forces inside the layers are predominantly covalent. GaTe crystallizep in two modifications (hexagonal and monoclinic). The monoclinic modification of GaTe (space group C ) has twelve molecules
