Popis:	Bi 2 (Te 1− x Se x ) 3 single crystal solid solutions with x = 0.025 and x = 0.05 have been grown using the travelling heater method. The first step of this work was the study of the BiTeSe ternary phase diagram on the Bi 2 Te 3 -rich side and with excess tellurium. The isoconcentration lines for these two compositions have been determined for temperatures ranging from 550 °C to their melting points. The knowledge of this phase diagram allows us to grow homogeneous ingots of high crystalline quality. The solidus line on the Te-rich side for these compositions has been determined by Hall effect measurements. This study shows that it is possible to grow thermodynamically well-defined single crystals in a reproducible way.
