Abstract
Thermal expansion of tetragonal ZnP2 and CdP2 single crystals grown fr om the vapor phase was studied by dilatometric measurements. The relat ive size change in the [001] and [100] directions exhibits hysteretic behavior. A change in temperature-scan rate results in a kink in the D elta L/L(0) = f(T) curves. The obtained data are discussed in terms of the narrow homogeneity range of ZnP2 and CdP2.
