New glassy, crystalline and glass-crystalline materials from the GeSe2-Sb2Te3-CdTe system are synthesized by melt quenching technique. Using the results of the performed syntheses, X-ray diffraction analysis and scanning electron microscopy the glass forming region within this system is outlined. It lies partially on the GeSe2-Sb2Te3 and GeSe2-CdTe sides, as glassy samples are obtained up to 32.5 mol % Sb2Te3 and 27 mol % CdTe, respectively. Some assumptions about the structure of the samples are made on the basis of the results from the XRD investigations.
Key words: Chalcogenide glasses / glass forming region / X-ray diffraction
