Abstract
Single crystals of the lamellar compounds ZrS3 having the stoichiometr y MX(3) (M = IVB, X = S, Se, Te) are grown by a chemical vapour transp ort technique. They are characterised by EDAX and X-ray diffraction te chniques. The behaviour of resistivity under pressure is thoroughly st udied. The semiconducting nature of the specimens is inferred from the resistance versus temperature measurements. The increase in resistanc e of the samples with increase in pressure is explained.
