Description

The alloys of the Cu2CdSnSe4-Cu2MnSnSe4 system were investigated using the X-ray powder method that showed the continuous solubility of the original system components at 670 K. The refinement of the crystal structures of Cu2MnSnSe4 (space group (SG) I42m, a = 0.57362(4) nm, c = 1.14007(7) nm, c/a = 1.9875, RI = 0.0531, RP = 0.1186) and of the solid solution of Cu2Cd0.5Mn0.5SnSe4 composition (SG I42m, a = 0.57935(2) nm, c = 1.14036(5) nm, c/a = 1.9683, RI = 0.0455, RP = 0.0902) was performed. It was established that Cd mixes statistically with Mn in its crystallographic position. (copyright 2006 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH and Co. KGaA, Weinheim) (orig.)
