Facile Preparation of Nanocrystalline Gallium Antimonide
The 1:1 reaction of GaCl3 with Sb(SiMe(3))(3) in pentane solution affords an intermediate material which, upon thermolysis, yields nanocrystalline GaSb with an approximate average particle size of 12 nm. The product was characterized through powder X-ray diffraction, elemental analysis, and HRTEM.
