โฆ Synopsis
In compounds belonging to the SnTe-Bi2Tex system the close-packed anionic sublattice forms both regular and distorted octahedral cavities acting as cation sites. On the basis of X-ray analysis a statistical distribution of Sn and Bi atoms in both types of cation site has been proposed. However, the results of a Miissbauer investigation indicate that there IS in fact an ordered distribution of Sn atoms into regular octahedral sites.
