The phase diagram of the semimagnetic system (MnTe)1-x
-(Ga2Te3)
x
has been determined from SEM, DTA, X-ray and EDS investigations. It has been found that a miscibility gap exists for x<0.50, while for x≥0.50 compositions the two chalcogenides form, at high temperature, a complete solid solution. A structural characterization of the adamantine phase MnGa2Te4 is also reported.
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.
