Presentation Transcript

  1. Electron Poor Materials Research Group EPMRG Updates of Experiments in Augsburg --- Crystallographic study of SiB3, ZnSb… --- Synthetic attempts for a-B --- Property measurements of (ZnSnSb2)1-x(InSb)2x

  2. Charge Density Study by the Analysis of High Resolution Diffraction Data • Bruker AXS diffractometer with Imus micro-focus X-Ray Source • Ag-radiation, the same sinq/l at much lower angle • Enough data redundancy for good statistics

  3. Multipole Refinement of ZnSb in Jana 2006 • Diffraction data were collected at 100K with 2q up to 120o • Extinction and anharmonicity were refined before starting the multipole refinement • d electrons of Zn were considered as valence electrons • Multipole refinment was stopped at 2nd order (quadruple) • R=1.38% and highest peak of 0.34 e/Å3

  4. Total Density

  5. Total Laplacian +/- 8, 4 , 2 * 10^n and n is +/- 3, 2, 1.

  6. Dumbbell Rattling?

  7. Heat Capacity of ZnSb

  8. Synthesis of b- SiB3 with high pressure

  9. Si1: 84% Ge1: 16% Si2: 90% Ge2: 10% Si1-xGexB3 Si1: 84% Ge1: 16% Si1: 84% Ge1: 16%

  10. Thermoelectric Chalcopyrite (ZnSnSb2)1-x(InSb)2x + 4Sn x = 0.9, x = 0.85, x=0.8 and InSb (quenched from 1:1 melt and Sn-flux growth)
