We present a class of subshifts ZN,N=1,2,…, whose associated C*-algebras 𝒪ZN are simple, purely infinite and not stably isomorphic to any Cuntz–Krieger algebra nor to the Cuntz algebra 𝒪∞. The class of the subshifts is the first example whose associated C*-algebras are not stably isomorphic to any Cuntz–Krieger algebra nor to the Cuntz algebra 𝒪∞. The subshifts ZN are coded systems whose languages are context free. We compute the topological entropy for the subshifts and show that a KMS-state (a state satisfying the Kubo–Martin–Schwinger condition) for gauge action on the associated C*-algebra 𝒪ZN exists if and only if the logarithm of the inverse temperature is the topological entropy for the subshift ZN, and the corresponding KMS-state is unique.
