The ternary compounds A /SUP I/ B /SUP III/ C/sub 2/ /SUP VI/ (A /SUP I/ is univalent Ti; B /SUP III/ is Ga or In; and C /SUP VI/ is S, Se or Te) form a class of semiconductors with a large number of different gap widths. The compounds crystallize in the chalcopyrite structure. Solid solutions based on these compounds, which permit varying smoothly the gap width and other physical parameters over wide limits, are of great interest. The authors synthesized the compounds TiInSe/sub 2/ and TiSbSe/sub 2/ from the starting materials Ti-000, In-000, Sb-000 and Se-OSCh-17-4 by direct fusion of the components, taken in a stoichiometric ratio, in quartz ampules evacuated to 1.3 X 10/sup -3/ Pa and sealed.
