Abstract

We have constructed the T-x phase diagram of the TlGaS2-TlFeS2 system (simple eutectic system, eutectic at 80 mol % TlFeS2 with a melting point of 953 K). The system contains limited series of monoclinic solid solutions based on the ternary end-members. At an annealing temperature of 933 K, the TlGaS2-based solid solution extends to 5 mol % TlFeS2 and the TlFeS2-based solid solution extends to ≅10 mol % TlGaS2. We have examined the effect of partial iron substitution for gallium on the optical properties of melt-grown single crystals of the TlGaS2-based solid solutions and determined their band gap as a function of temperature and Fe concentration.
