Substitution of indium for chromium in TlIn5−xCrxSe8: crystal structure of TlIn4.811(5)Cr0.189(5)Se8
نویسندگان
چکیده
The new thallium penta-(indium/chromium) octa-selenide, TlIn4.811(5)Cr0.189(5)Se8, has been synthesized by solid-state reaction. It crystallizes isotypically with TlIn5Se8 in the space group C2/m. Although the two Tl positions are disordered and only partially occupied, no Tl deficiency was observed. The insertion of chromium in the structure has been confirmed by EDS analysis. Chromium substitutes indium exclusively at one of three In sites, viz. at one of the positions with site symmetry 2/m (Wyckoff position 2a). In the crystal structure, edge-sharing InSe6 octa-hedra, and (In,Cr)Se6 octa-hedra and InSe4 tetra-hedra make up two types of columns that are linked into a framework in which two different types of channels parallel to [010] are present. The Tl atoms are located in the larger of the channels, whereas the other, smaller channel remains unoccupied.

Indium Substitution Effect on the Topological Crystalline Insulator Family (Pb1-xSnx)1-yInyTe: Topological and Superconducting Properties
Topological crystalline insulators (TCIs) have been of great interest in the area of condensed matter physics. We investigated the effect of indium substitution on the crystal structure and transport properties in the TCI system (Pb1−xSnx)1−yInyTe. For samples with a tin concentration x ≤ 50%, the low-temperature resisitivities show a dramatic variation as a function of indium concentration: wi...

Nano cavities based on silicon and indium phosphide materials have been comparedin this study, considering field intensity enhancement factor. The results of FDTD based simulations declare that the Si nano-cavity improves confined optical field about 7.7 times higher than the InP based nano-cavity. The introduced dielectric nano-cavities support resonance wavelength at about λ=1.55 μm.
