Synthesis and characterisation of gallium antimonide nanoparticles: reaction between tris (trimethylsilyl)antimonide and gallium trichloride

Stephan Schulz, Leonardo Hernández Martínez, Jean L. Ross

Open publisher page 19 citations

Abstract

The reaction between GaCl3 and Sb(SiMe3)3 in a 1:1 mole ratio at 110°C in toluene leads to gallium antimonide, GaSb, which has been characterised by electron diffraction studies and EDX and elemental analyses. Microscopy studies (SEM and TEM) show the formation of nanocrystals with a predominant crystal size of 20–30 nm.
