The germanium–selenium phase diagram

Abstract
The Ge–Se phase diagram was determined in the composition range 0–66.67 at. % Se by the method of differential thermal analysis. The diagram differs totally from the one reported by Liu etal. (1) but is in good agreement with the diagram recently reported by Karbanov etal. (13). In its broad features the Ge–Se phase diagram is quite similar to the diagrams of the Ge–S, Sn–S, and Sn–Se systems.
