Abstract Manganous telluride (Mn Te) thin films have been vapour-deposited onto cleaved sodium chloride and amorphous carbon substrates. At substrate temperatures between 150 and 400° C the MnTe grew with an epitaxial relationship to the NaCl, as a mixture of the cubic phase not previously observed in this temperature range, and the stable hexagonal phase. On carbon substrates only the hexagonal phase was observed. The appearance of the cubic phase appears to be associated with the cubic substrate, a phenomenon previously observed with CdS films on NaCl, but the relative Mn Te cubic and hexagonal phase stabilities may also be influenced by the nonstoichiometric vapour beam.
