Quaternary Alloys Based on II - VI Semiconductors

This book collects data pertaining to diagrams of quaternary systems based on II¿VI semiconductor compounds. It illustrates up-to-date experimental and theoretical information about phase relations based on II¿VI semiconductor systems with four components. It critically evaluates many industrially significant systems presented in two-dimensional sections for the condensed phases. Each quaternary database description includes the diagram type, possible phase transformations and physical¿chemical interactions of the components, thermodynamic characteristics, and methods for equilibrium investigation and sample preparation.
