Abstract

Microhardness data for PbTe1−x Halx (Hal = Cl, Br, I) solid solutions are used to evaluate the halogen solubility in PbTe. The density of the PbTe1−x Halx solid solutions is shown to drop with increasing halogen content, with a rate decreasing in the order Cl > Br > I. The density data are interpreted in terms of self-compensation.
