Abstract Bulk glasses of the compositions Se70Te30 and Se80Te20 were prepared by the melt quenching technique. Differential thermal analyses were performed at different heating rates. The values of the glass transition temperature,T g, the crystallization temperature,T c, and the peak temperature of crystallization,T p, were found to depend on the composition and the heating rate. The activation energy for the glass transition,E i, as well as the activation energy for crystallization,E c, were evaluated from the heating rate dependence ofT g andT p. The crystallization mechanism was examined through analysis of the data under non-isothermal conditions. The results indicated that surface crystallization is dominant for both compositions.
