Abstract
The interaction of oxygen with solid lead selenide samples prepared in the form of bulk single crystals, films, pressed pellets, and powders is investigated in the temperature range 298–823 K at exposure times of 5–240 min and an oxygen pressure of ∼105 Pa. All samples are produced from a lead selenide batch heat treated under dynamic vacuum. It is revealed that, under the given thermodynamic conditions, the PbSeO3 phase is formed on the surface of all the PbSe samples beginning with room temperature. No phase transformations are observed in the sample bulk. Lead selenite is synthesized using lead selenide precursor by the solid-phase method in an oxygen atmosphere at temperatures considerably lower than the melting temperature. At the intermediate synthesis stage, it is possible to prepare lead selenide nanocrystalline structures embedded in a PbSeO3 dielectric matrix.
