In this work, we have reported the specific heat measurements in glassy Se80-xTe20Cdx (0 ≤ x ≤ 15) alloys using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) technique. A tremendously huge raise in the specific heat (Cp) has been observed at the glass transition temperature. We have also observed that the values of Cp below glass transition temperature and after glass transition are highly composition dependent. This is the sign of that fact that the incorporation of Cd in binary Se80Te20 alloy influences its glassy structure drastically. The observed changes in the specific heat of the ternary alloys as compared to binary alloy are explained in terms of atomic weight of the additive element Cd..

Active accounts were imported to the new platform and assigned a random password by default. In order to access your account you need to access the login page and go through the Lost Password dialog (involves the system sending you an email with instructions) in order to reset your password. This step is necessary as passwords are kept in hashed form and the new platform uses modern hashing algorithms incompatible with the previous ones.
