Abstract :
In order to optimize the binary Ge-Te system available experimental data were critically compiled from the literature. The cubic high-temperature β-phase and the rhomboedric room-temperature α-phase were described by a two-sublattice model with one kind of defect (vacancies on germanium sites). The room-temperature orthorhombic γ-phase was treated as a stoichiometric compound, as there is a lack of information about its solubility. The liquid phase was modelled by the the associate model with one kind of associate, namely ‘GeTe’. A set of thermodynamic parameters was obtained and the calculated phase diagram is presented.
