โฆ Synopsis
The synthesis, structure and properties of indium-intercalated compounds of molybdenum sulphoselenide, Inv3MoSxSe2_โข (0 _< x < 2) compounds were investigated. X-ray analysis shows that all these compounds possess layer-type structure with hexagonal symmetry. Studies of room-temperature magnetic susceptibility, thermoelectric power experiments and two-probe conductivity measurements in the temperature range 25-350 ~ confirmed that these are diamagnetic semiconductors with In1/3MoS2, Inv3MoS~.~Se0.5 and Inl/3MoSxSe2_โข (0 _< x < 1.5) exhibiting n-and p-type conductivity, respectively. These results have been explained on the basis of existing band models. Thermal stability behaviour of these compounds in an air atmosphere and X-ray analysis of the oxidized product were also studied.

Elemental mercury cannot be intercalated into crystalline molybdenum disul5de as such, probably for structural reasons, the a parameter of the host being too small. On the contrary, we show that a reaction between restacked MoS 2 and liquid mercury allows the synthesis of such an intercalate. X-ray
