Indium thallium phosphide: experiments versus predictions

We have attempted synthesis of TlP from melt and InTlP from solution by liquid-phase epitaxy (LPE). X-ray diffraction measurements of the melt-grown material reveal the presence of orthorhombic compound which is identified as TlP 5 by comparison with the published data in literature. Energy dispersi...

Summary:We have attempted synthesis of TlP from melt and InTlP from solution by liquid-phase epitaxy (LPE). X-ray diffraction measurements of the melt-grown material reveal the presence of orthorhombic compound which is identified as TlP 5 by comparison with the published data in literature. Energy dispersive X-ray analysis suggests the composition of the crystallites to be TlP 3. By LPE growth, smooth layers from In and In+Tl solutions are grown on InP substrates. However, there is no significant incorporation of thallium in the epitaxial layers.
