The optical absorption spectra of AgInS2:Co2+ single crystals grown by chemical transport reaction using iodine as a transporting medium have been studied at 6 K. The peaks can be explained by the transitions of Co2+ in the Td symmetry with the spin-orbit coupling, which means that the deviations of the atomic sites from those of the ideal wurtzite structure can be considered negligibly small. The consideration of both the crystal field parameters and the electronegativity difference between atoms may indicate that Co atoms substitute In atoms.

The optical absorption spectra of cobalt-doped MgIn2S4, CdIn2S4, and HgIn2S4 single crystals grown by a chemical transport reaction were investigated at 7 K. The values of Dq and B calculated from the observed spectra show that the d electrons are more delocalized in the order of MgIn2S4, CdIn2S4, and HgIn2S4. Because this order corresponds to the decreasing order of the electronegativity differences between the metal and sulfur atoms of the host crystals, we conclude that as the metal-sulfur bonds in the host crystals are more covalent, the d electrons of the cobalt impurities are more spread out and the cobalt-sulfur bonds are also more covalent.

Single crystals of 2H and 3R niobium diselenide were grown by a chemical transport reaction. The current determinations by single crystals X-ray diffraction reveal a non-stoichiometric composition. The structures are built from Se—Nb—Se slabs with Nb in trigonal prismatic coordination whereas the extra or additional Nb atoms are located in the octahedral holes between the slabs giving rise to the formula 2H and 3R-Nb1+xSe2 with 0.07 < x < 0.118. In particular, vacancy and Nb-Nb interactions may play an important role on the non-stoichiometry and the stacking mode in NbSe2. By increasing the number of additional Nb atoms in the pure 2H-NbSe2, a transition 2H to 3R polytype should occur in order to minimize the Nblayer—Nbextra—Nblayer repulsions between these adjacent slabs. The theoretical study shows that both 2H and 3R-Nb1+xSe2 are thermodynamically stable in the range 0 < x < 0.1.

Single crystals of Cd4As2Br3(tetracadmium biarsenide tribromide) were grown by a chemical transport reaction. The structure is isotypic with the members of the cadmium and mercury pnictidohalides family with general formulaM4A2X3(M= Cd, Hg;A= P, As, Sb;X= Cl, Br, I) and contains two independent As atoms on special positions with site symmetry -3 and two independent Cd atoms, of which one is on a special position with site symmetry -3. The Cd4As2Br3structure consists of AsCd4tetrahedra sharing vertices with isolated As2Cd6octahedra that contain As–As dumbbells in the centre of the octahedron. The Br atoms are located in the voids of this three-dimensional arrangement and bridge the different polyhedra through Cd...Br contacts.
