Single crystals of Cd/sub 4/GeS/sub 6/, Cd/sub 4/GeSe/sub 6/, and the derived solid solutions have been synthesized and grown. Investigation of physicochemical and photoelectric properties of the alloys showed the existence in the Cd/sub 4/GeS/sub 6/-Cd/sub 4/GeSe/sub 6/ system of a continuous series of solid solutions. The specific resistance and the photosensitivity of the alloys fall with increasing selenium content. For polycrystalline Cd/sub 4/GeS/sub 6/ and Cd/sub 4/GeSe/sub 6/, the average low-temperature heat capacity was determined, and the standard entropy, enthalpy, and entropy of formation were calculated.
