Thermal, optical, mechanical and structural studies were carried out on glasses in the pseudo-binary joint GeTe-AsSe prepared by a melt quenching method. (GeTe)(AsSe) glasses in the entire composition range of 0 ≤ ≤ 100 have an average coordination number () = 2.4, where the glass forming ability is found to be maximum.

It is observed that with increasing Se substitution in GeTe, the structure transforms from rhombohdral structure to orthorhombic structure.
