The temperature dependence of both electronic properties and total structure factor of liquid In 2 Te 3 is discussed in terms of an inhomogeneous liquid model. All available data can be consistently explained using the volume fraction of the metallic region determined from the Knight shift. The results indicate that liquid In 2 Te 3 consists of two kinds of well-defined domains which have the same chemical composition (In 2 Te 3 ) but difference structures. From magnetic susceptibility measurements it is inferred that at sufficiently high temperature (>or=1100 degrees C) the molecular form In 2 Te becomes stable rather than In 2 Te 3 . A possible mechanism for this phenomenon is discussed from the viewpoint of valence fluctuations of In ions.
