Abstract
The T-x phase diagram of the Tl2Se-PbSe system has been mapped out. The system contains a congruently melting compound (803 K) of composition Tl4PbSe3, which forms a continuous series of solid solutions with Tl2Se. Tl4PbSe3 single crystals have been grown by directional solidification, and their physicochemical and thermoelectric properties have been studied. Tl4PbSe3 crystals have high thermopower (α T ) and thermoelectric figure of merit (Z T ).
