摘要

This research delves into the thermal transport characteristics of the novel quaternary chalcogenide Se90-xTe5Sn5Znx (0 ≤ x ≤ 9) (STSZ) network, which was prepared using the melt-quenching method. Measurements of effective thermal conductivity (λe), effective thermal diffusivity (χe), and specific heat per unit volume (ρCp) for twin pellets of STSZ chalcogenide glasses (ChGs) were conducted at ambient temperature by employing the transient plane source (TPS) technique. The observed a non-monotonous trend in the values of λe, χe and ρCp related to 3 at. mass% and 6 at mass% of Zn concentration in the quaternary compositions accredited to the formation of higher-order cross-linking. The two structural units at 3 at mass% and 6 at mass% of Zn are considered as critical (threshold) compositions at which the quaternary STSZ network turns into a chemically ordered alloy. Also, the observed discrepancies in thermal transport characteristics reliant upon composition can be connected to the structural relaxation phenomena of the multicomponent network of STSZ. In addition, a topological framework knowledgeable in constraint theory can provide inclusive clarification for the variations in the thermal transport properties of the STSZ network.
