摘要
The reaction kinetics of [(Ti-Te)](x)[(Sb-Te)](y), [(Bi-Te)](x)[(Sb-Te)](y), [(Ti-Te)](w)[(Bi-Te)](x) and [(Ti-Te)](w)[(Bi-Te)](x)[(Ti-Te)](y)[(Sb-Te)](z) precursors as a function of annealing temperature and time was probed using x-ray diffraction techniques to define the parameters required to form superlattice structures. [(TiTe2)(1.36)](x)[Sb2Te3](y) and [(TiTe2)(1.36)](x)[Bi2Te3](y) superlattices were observed to form while [(Bi-Te)](x)[(Sb-Te)](y) precursors yielded only Bi2-xSbxTe3 alloys. This behavior was correlated with the miscibility/immiscibility of the constituents of the targeted superlattices. For the three component system, Bi and Sb were observed to interdiffuse through the Ti-Te layer over the range of Ti-Te thicknesses explored, resulting in formation of (BixSb1-x)(2)Te-3 alloys within the superlattice structure. When the Bi2Te3 and Sb2Te3 thicknesses were equal, symmetric [{(TiTe2)}(1.36)](w)[(Bi0.5Sb0.5)(2)Te-3](y) superlattices were formed.
