Synthesis and Characterization of Sb65Se35-xGex Alloys
نویسنده
چکیده
Density, chemical, structural and vibrational studies of GexSb65Se35-x system with 0 ≤ x ≤ 20 produce by melt-quench technique were carried out using Archimedes method, Energy Dispersive Spectroscopy (EDS), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Raman spectroscopy. All specimens are polycrystalline in nature as confirmed by XRD pattern. The compositional dependence of the XRD and Raman spectra suggests the presence of two basic structural units, SbSe3 pyramids with three-fold coordinated Sb atom at the apex and GeSe4 tetrahedrons. The compositional dependence of these physicochemical properties of the investigated samples are investigated and discussed in light of many models. PACS: 68.55. Ln; 61.50. Ks; 68.55.Jk

Structure of Sn12xGex random alloys as obtained from the coherent potential approximation
The structure of the Sn1 xGex random alloys is studied using density functional theory and the coherent potential approximation. We report on the deviation of the Sn1 xGex alloys from Vegard’s law, addressing their full compositional range. The findings are compared to the related Si1 xGex alloys and to experimental results. Interestingly, the deviation from Vegard’s law is quantitatively and q...

Gas-source molecular-beam epitaxy (MBE) has been used to grow SiGe alloys with S&H6 and GeH4 as sources on (100) Si substrates. Single-crystalline epilayers with Ge composition as high as 33% have been produced at 610 “C, the lowest temperature hitherto used for gas-source SiGe MBE. Growth parameters, growth modes, and the structural characteristics have been studied by a variety of in situ and...
