Abstract

MgAl 2 Te 4 , MgGa 2 Te 4 and MgIn 2 Te 4 were prepared by direct synthesis from the elements at 1000°C. MgIn 2 Te 4 crystallizes tetragonal in a variation of the zincblende structure. The vacancies are ordered as in β-Cu 2 HgJ 4 , the Mg- and In-atoms are distributed randomly in the cation sites of this structure.
