Abstract
The Ga/In/P ternary phase diagram is calculated. A regular solution is assumed for binary solubility and the derived interaction parameters are used to calculate the deviation from ideality of the ternary system using a quasi-regular solution model. Comparison is made between theoretical and experimental results on liquid epitaxial layers. It is suggested that a solid/solid miscibility gap in the Ga/In/P system is a distinct possibility.
