Research Abstract
The amorphoustocrystallinetransformationinTe67.5Ga2.5As30 occurs undernon-isothermalcondi-
tions. Thecrystallizationparametersofthisamorphousmaterialareestimatedusingdifferential
scanningcalorimetery(DSC).Theactivationenergyofcrystallization(Ec) andthefrequencyfactor(K0)
are calculatedtobe113.1671.5 kJ/moland1.041010731.70 s1, respectively.Thecrystallization

preparedandannealedsamples,respectively.Thecrystallizedgrainsizesofnanoscalearecalculated
from theXRDpeaks.
