Abstract

The reaction of Al deposited on Sb(111) was studied by high-resolution electron-energy-loss spectroscopy. The formation of AlSb was confirmed by the observation of the surface optical phonon of the compound at 332 ${\mathrm{cm}}^{\mathrm{\ensuremath{-}}1}$ (41 meV). A quantitative interpretation of the AlSb/Sb interface formation is proposed, based on the dielectric theory of electron-energy-loss spectroscopy.
