摘要
The preparation of bulk AlSb compound with maintained stoichiometry was attempted using a vertical directional solidification apparatus. The bulk material was utilized to synthesize the thin film on different substrate material and deposition temperatures using the method of thermal evaporation. Under different process conditions, a good quality thin film with a single phase of fcc structure and having semiconducting behavior was successfully grown on a NaCl substrate at 573 K. Microstructural features originated under these suitable conditions lead to random distribution of fine grain with polycrystalline nature.
