This paper reports the physicochemical factors involved in the interaction components in the ternary system In-Sb-Tl and the effect of thalliu on indium antimonide properties. It is shown that ternary compounds are not formed in the In-Sb-Tl quasi-binary cross section. Despite the indium and thallium being closely related group III elements with similar electron configurations and tetrahedral covalent radii, the indium antimonide region of homogeneity in the In-Sb-Tl system, drawn along the quasi-binary InSb-Tl cross section, was only slight (0.2 at. % Tl).
