Abstract

Formation of the homologous series of layered compounds nBi2-mBi2Te3 and nGeTe mBi2Te3 is analyzed. For both series, the crystal structure contains two-layer (Bi2 or GeTe) and five-layer (Bi2Te3) packets perpendicular to the c axis. Unlike the Bi2 packets, the GeTe packets do not retain their individuality during crystal structure formation; they are linked to the Bi2Te3 five-layer packets to form new multilayer packets leading to a considerable change in the character of interatomic interactions.
