“…In principle, the next step of the elemental substitutions to reduce the thermal conductivity and narrow the band gap would include the replacement of K + with Tl + to produce K 2– x Tl x Hg 2 Te 3 . However, such compounds would be extremely toxic, comparable with HgBe 2 . We refer to an early mentioning of the compound with the nominal composition K 2 Hg 2 Te 3 in the literature yet as the precursor to various ammonium telluridomercurate salts, without the provision of any chemical or physical characterization …”

K₂Hg₂Te₃: Straightforward and Large-Scale Mercury-Flux Synthesis of a Small-Band-Gap Photoconducting Material

et al. 2018

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

K2Hg2Te3 was synthesized via a mercury-flux synthesis pathway. Single-crystal and powder X-ray diffraction reveal the compound to be isostructural to its lighter congener K2Hg2Se3, yet exhibiting enhanced photoconductivity and electrical conductivity of (several) orders of magnitude and a decreased thermal conductivity and band gap. In this report, we elaborate on the synthesis and properties of the novel ternary compound.
