Syntheses of Metal Chalcogenides Using Organometallic Methods

Abstract

The precursor method is being used increasingly in the preparation of solid state inorganic materials. Use of this general method allows the isolation of otherwise inaccessible phases and the preparation of known phases under much milder conditions. One approach which holds promise is the use of organometallic precursors for the preparation of both thin films and bulk samples of inorganic materials. In this paper I describe our syntheses of several metal chalcogenides from organometallic reagents.

The stability range of this phase (as prepared from the direct combination of the elements) is reported to be from FeTe0.8 to FeTe0.9. In the work described in this manuscript the phase we report as FeTe shows the X-ray diffraction pattern of this β phase.
