Abstract The phase diagram of the Cu2CdSnS4–Cu2ZnSnS4system was constructed using data on differential thermal, X-ray phase and microstructure analysis methods. The diagram can be attributed to the first type according to the Rosebohm classification. The Cu2CdSnS4–Cu2ZnSnS4 solid solution single crystals were grown by chemical vapor transport using iodine as a transport agent. Their structure and unit cell parameters as well as compositional dependences of lattice parameters, pycnometric, X-ray densities and microhardness were determined. It was found that the Vegard's law is fulfilled in solutions studied.
