Description
The phase diagram of the Cu2GeTe3-ZnTe system was investigated using differential thermal analysis and X-ray diffraction. A Cu2ZnGeTe4 compound forms in the system that melts incongruently at 823K. Its crystal structure was refined using powder X-ray diffraction. Cu2ZnGeTe4 crystallizes in the tetragonal space group I4-bar 2m (structure type Cu2FeSnS4) with lattice constants a=0.59540(4)nm, c=1.1848(1)nm, c/a=1.990. The atomic parameters were refined in the isotropic approximation to RI=0.0786
